- Top super lightweight contender Elvis Rodriguez continued his rapid ascent with an impressive seventh-round TKO of former champion Viktor Postol, who was stopped on his feet for the second straight fight at this venue.
Rodriguez, who has notched four straight wins since dropping a majority decision to Kenneth Sims in 2021, floored Postol with a right hook in the final seconds of the sixth round and hurt Postol again with another right hook in the seventh round as referee Celestino Ruiz stopped the bout at 23 seconds of the frame as Postol stumbled into the ropes after absorbing a barrage of punches. Rodriguez led 59-54 on all three judges’ scorecards.
The Freddie Roach-trained Rodriguez improved to 15-1-1 with 13 knockouts, while Postol fell to 31-5 (12 KOs) and has now lost three straight in his storied career. Postol was taken to the hospital for observation following the bout and wasn’t available for comment.
“For every fight we always have a plan,” Rodriguez said. “Today, maybe it helped a little bit that Freddie trained Postol, but it's always a plan for a different fighter. This all started in the fifth round. When I hit him, I thought I fractured his nose, then I gave him a nice look in the fifth. So, in the sixth I was going for the kill. I felt I had him from the beginning in the seventh round. I gave him a hook and I saw that he was in trouble. And then the referee stopped the fight. So we knew we had won. I'm ready. I'm ready for a world title. I've worked too hard so far. Thank you.”
An interesting sub-plot of the match was the presence of famed-trainer Freddie Roach, who was in Rodriguez’s corner on Saturday and had also recently trained and guided Postol. Their familiarity extended to Roach’s Wild Card Boxing Gym in Los Angeles with the two frequently sparring. The experience favored Rodriguez as he hurt Postol with a jab-right combination midway through the third round that had Postol retreating for the remainder of the round.
Rodriguez landed a right hook to the top of Postol’s head with approximately 20 seconds left in the third as Rodriguez began sitting down on his punches and opening up. Rodriguez hurt Postol with a left-right combo to the body with 20 seconds left in the fifth that nearly doubled Postol over and had him dancing away to end the round. Rodriguez caught Postol with a right uppercut to start the sixth and later stunned Postol with a hard right jab as Postol’s left eye began to close and Postol’s nose and mouth filled with blood before the bout was stopped.

It's about time PBC finally uploads highlights but they forgot Vargas vs foster, Matias vs Ponce, Figueroa vs magsayo, fundora vs Mendoza, Romero vs barroso, adames vs Williams and Ennis vs Villa... That's almost the whole PBC first half schedule PBC gotta do better
Yo soy dominicano y lo quiero ver con uno que este a su nivel
Good fight, respect to the ref when Postol was trying to get away and his glove touched the ground but the ref didn't step in, to break up the action would have been wrong at that point as Rodriguez was advancing and Postol was trying to defend. Good stoppage as well.
Elvis Rodríguez es un monstruo ...en su pelea son ko toda por la via rapida
Beautiful finish
Elvis should run it back with Sims
he said he wants it but sims doesn't seem to want to.
Let's go🇩🇴🥊💯
Wow
Por favor Postol ya esta viejo y gastado 27 y 39 no lo veo como un gran logro pa decir wow que bestia.
No importa lo que digas Elvis va creciendo

Постол - закінчився(
Really disappointing highlights...no context at all...try a little harder people...
1 minute highlight😴
Bud didn't ko postol.
That stoppage was worse than the Russell one. Nonetheless. Postol is shot. He moves like an old man in there. Shell of the fighter that Knocked out Matthysse in his prime.
Perfect stoppage…. Even Postol agree look at him after the referee came… he not his head even didn’t even contest it
😢😢
@@opinionated_take Yeah I'd delete my comments too
huh? the russell one was way worse, even postol looked at the ref confused after it, if you see postol here he didn't look at the ref confused like he did vs russell and was fine with the stoppage.
What you know do you box clown
Postol retire
Postol in his prime would of spanked on elvis
Another premature stoppage 🤦🏿♂️ These refs gotta tighten tf up!!
😢
Guy is dancing around like Amir Khan when he gets rocked. Has no one to blame but himself. He never looked steady on his feet when he got hit with glancing shots
@@chriswelcome8102 🤣🤣🤣🤣
i disagree, the russell one was a bad stoppage though. In here postol clearly accepted the stoppage whereas he was confused vs russell on why they stopped it.
