Andy Dominguez beats Angel morales

NEW YORK CITY (December 18, 2024) – Last night’s “Holiday Fight Night 3” card, presented by Boxing Insider Promotions, showcased some of the best Big Apple prospects in Sony Hall’s intimate surroundings, streamed live on DAZN from historic Times Square.
“There is no place like New York City for boxing,” said promoter Larry Goldberg, the 2024 New York State Promoter of the Year (NYSBHOF). “It has the greatest vibe of anywhere in the world with great fans, as tough as nails, and the strongest regulations in the sport. It’s been a real privilege to promote our 10thprofessional boxing event in Times Square since 2022 and our third fight in a row on DAZN. We are making our return to New York City on Thursday night, February 20th, and will be announcing details shortly.”
The main event between Mexican flyweight Andy Dominguez, a three-time New York Golden Gloves Champion fighting out of the South Bronx, and his Mexican opponent, Angel “Geovanny “Rayito” Meza Morales (8-3-3, 6 KOs), was an old-fashioned barnburner in which Dominguez overcame a knockdown in the third round to win the fight.
Dominguez clearly won the first two rounds, but the knockdown evened the fight going into the fourth, in which a confident Morales picked up the pace. Dominguez established command in sixth round and kept control through the remainder of the bout for an eight-round unanimous decision
NYPD officer Nisa Rodriguez (3-0, 1 KO), ranked No. 9 in the world by the World Boxing Council (WBC), registered the knockout of her relatively young pro career with a second-round stoppage of middleweight Melody Popravak (2-2-1, 1 KO). Rodriguez rocked Popravak with 30 seconds remaining in the opening round, continuing with a barrage of punches until the bell. Popravak never recovered and Rodriguez, who fights out of Manhattan, battered her with crisp combinations until the fight was halted at the 52-second mark.
