In the first round, Cabrera managed to cause problems for the Mexican, the left-hander landed several good blows to William’s head and body. Then the Mexican took the initiative and broke through Giovanni’s defense with powerful blows.
The denouement came in the third round. Zepeda landed a punch to the liver, which exposed his opponent. Cabrera missed the next series and sank to the ring. The American was able to get up after the referee counted to ten.
