In an action-packed welterweight clash that ended prematurely, Brian Norman Jr. (25-0, 19 KOs) and Janelson Figueroa Bocachica (17-2-1, 11 KOs) battled to a no-decision on the Turning Stone Resort Casino undercard in Verona, New York. The fight, filled with drama from the start, saw both fighters dealing with injuries early on.

The match began with Norman showing signs of tension, hesitating to engage fully and suffering a knockdown from an overhand right by Bocachica in the opening round. Despite the setback, Norman inflicted a cut over Bocachica's left eye, setting the tone for a rugged contest.

The intensity escalated in the second round as Norman sustained a cut above his right eye. The situation worsened for Bocachica when a clash of heads resulted in a cut on his forehead with just 37 seconds left in the round, prompting a fierce exchange between the two competitors.

As the fight progressed, it became clear that both fighters were preceding strategy in favour of power shots, making for a wild and unpredictable spectacle. Bocachica, in particular, capitalised on Norman's indecision and difficulty in finding his range.

Ultimately, the bout was halted by Bocachica's corner after three rounds, just shy of the point where it would have proceeded to a decision based on the judges' scorecards. The premature conclusion left the audience without a definitive winner but provided plenty of excitement and anticipation for potential rematches in the future.
