Muratalla vs. Cruz – Live Results From Las Vegas

Raymond Muratalla outpoints Andy Cruz, keeps IBF belt

Raymond Muratalla beat Andy Cruz by majority decision and held onto the IBF lightweight title, and the result reshapes how the division has to look at him. This was not about pedigree or promise. It was about who could win rounds under pressure at championship pace.

The scores were 114-114, 116-112, and a wide 118-110 that reflected how differently judges weighed control versus optics. Muratalla was the underdog on paper, largely because Cruz brought an Olympic background and a reputation for polish. In the ring, Muratalla brought authority.

Khalil Coe was awarded a ten round majority decision over Jesse Hart on Saturday night in Las Vegas, a verdict that drew immediate debate among fans in attendance and watching on DAZN. The scores 94-94, 95-93, 96-92

Hart appeared to control much of the fight with higher activity and cleaner punching, particularly through the early and middle rounds. Coe, despite a clear size advantage after missing weight by more than seven pounds, fought cautiously and struggled to assert himself when opportunities arose.

The bout remained slow and uneven throughout, with no knockdowns and few sustained exchanges. Hart continued to press and finish rounds with purpose, while Coe remained conservative, including in the final round.

Two judges sided with Coe, with a third scoring the fight even, resulting in a majority decision that many observers disagreed with. Coe leaves with the win on paper, but the performance and result are likely to remain contested.

Israil Madrimov returned after an eleven month layoff and earned a ten round unanimous decision over Luis David Salazar on Saturday night in Las Vegas. The bout was part of the DAZN card headlined by Raymond Muratalla vs Andy Cruz.

All three judges scored the fight 99 91.

Madrimov controlled most of the action with his jab, pressure, and straight right hands, though he showed signs of rust and fatigue. Salazar stayed competitive early, landed occasional counters, and remained durable throughout.

The fight heated up in the tenth round, when Madrimov hurt Salazar badly with repeated right hands but could not force a stoppage. Madrimov finished with a swollen left eye after absorbing clean shots late.

The win moved Madrimov to 11 2 1, but it looked more like a rebuilding night than a statement.

Omari Jones left Las Vegas with another win on his record Saturday night, but the junior middleweight bout did little to advance the case for his readiness at the next level.

The 23 year old Olympic bronze medalist earned a six round unanimous decision over Jerome Baxter on the DAZN undercard, winning by identical 60 53 scores across the board. Jones scored a knockdown in the opening round and controlled most of the fight on paper, yet the performance drifted far from the showcase it was intended to be.

Jones hurt Baxter early in the first round with a sharp left hook and quickly followed with a jab that sent the 31 year old to the canvas. Baxter was badly shaken but managed to survive the round, regrouping enough to take Jones the distance.

After the early damage, the fight settled into a predictable rhythm. Jones boxed from the outside in the second round, relying on his jab to keep Baxter from pressing.

The tone shifted late. In the fifth and sixth rounds, Baxter pressed more confidently and landed several hard punches that appeared to get Jones’ attention.

Baxter never seriously threatened to win a round on the cards, but his durability and late resistance raised questions Jones did not answer. The early knockdown suggested a short night. The closing rounds suggested something closer to caution.

Jones improved to 5 0 with four knockouts, yet this outing underscored how much development remains. Against a limited opponent meant to highlight his strengths, Jones finished the fight circling and surviving rather than separating himself. At this stage, that distinction matters.

Super featherweight prospect Zaquin Moses remained unbeaten on Saturday night in Las Vegas, taking a six round unanimous decision over Leandro Damian Medina on the DAZN undercard topped by Raymond Muratalla vs Andy Cruz.

The scores were wide and uniform at 60 53 across all three cards, reflecting Moses’ steady control of the bout rather than any sustained damage.

Moses, a southpaw, boxed at long range for most of the fight. He relied on a consistent jab, straight left hands, and sharp counters to keep Medina from setting his feet. His footwork and angles allowed him to dictate distance and limit exchanges, particularly when Medina tried to press forward and make the fight physical.

Medina showed effort throughout and attempted to close the gap, but he struggled to land clean shots or disrupt Moses’ rhythm. When he did manage to get inside, Moses often responded by stepping back or tying him up, preventing prolonged exchanges.
