Round by Round Result

IBF World lightweight champion Robert Easter Jr. (19-0, 14 KOs) kept his unbeaten record intact on Friday night in defeating #15 Luis Cruz (22-5-1, 16 KOs) by a lopsided 12 round unanimous decision on Premier Boxing Champions on Bounce TV at the Huntington Center, in Toledo, Ohio, USA.

11 rounds to 1 for Easter Jr. The only round that you can argue that Cruz deserved was the 9th. That was a round that Cruz caught Easter Jr. with a powerful right hand to the head that caused him to hold on. When Easter Jr. let go of Cruz, he retreated and spent the remainder of the round trying not to get hit. Cruz fought well enough to deserve the round, but he still took a lot of big shots from Easter.

Easter knocked Cruz down with right hands in round 11 and 12, but he was unable to finish him off. Cruz, 31, did a good job of taking Easter’s big power shots and retaliating with his own shots. Unfortunately for Cruz, he lacked the punching to take advantage of Easter’s leaky defense. Easter smothered his own work much of the time by choosing to fight Cruz on the inside when having him trapped against the ropes in rounds 9 through 12.

It’s unclear why the 5’11” Easter Jr. chose to fight in close because he was a much better puncher when he was on the outside getting leverage on his shots. It might have been a thing of courage on his part for Easter for him to be fighting on the inside. Whatever the case, it wasn’t smart. He made the job much harder for himself, and probably ruined his chances of knocking Cruz out.


Easter Jr. wanted to score a knockout by the 6th, but he wasn’t able to hurt Cruz with anything when he tried to go for a knockout in that round. Cruz was fighting back hard each time Easter Jr. would land a meaningful shot. Cruz was very tough. He took some really hard punches in the 11th and 12th rounds. The punches that knocked Cruz down likely would have knocked out most fighters in the lightweight division.

It's successfully weighed in at 134 pounds on Thursday night for the title defense against world ranking #15 IBF Luis Cruz Friday on Premier Boxing Champions produced televised by Bounce TV from the Huntington Center, in Toledo, Ohio. Cruz weighed in at 134 ½ pounds.

Easter Jr. is one of the biggest punchers in the 135 pound division right now, and he’s facing a pure slugger in 31-year-old Cruz, who doesn’t know how to take a backwards step. Someone is going to get knocked out in this fight.

Easter Jr. has never tasted defeat before, but he had his moments of vulnerability in his last fight against Richard Commey last September in getting knocked down once. Easter Jr. did eventually win the fight by a 12 round split decision, but it was a very close one that was decided in the last three rounds. Commey had little trouble landing his big power shots against Easter.
