Victor Manuel Cayo made the most of his second trip to the Hard Rock Hotel Resort Casino at Hollywood Florida, as he remained undefeated with a unanimous decision win over former two-time champion Julio Diaz.

The ESPN FNF audience, as well as those watching live, were entertained from start to finish by the visiting guest from Dominican Republic as he razzle, dazzled, Diaz stanza after stanza.
 
The tall Dominican repeatedly dropped both hands to his side as if teasing Diaz much like a cat toying with a mouse. The assorted moves resulted in a pugilistic puzzle that the transplanted Mexican never came close to solving.

A frustrated Diaz never in serious physical trouble from the ongoing Cayo rat-tat-tat - the kid is short of punching power - still, Julio was never close to pulling the rabbit out of the hat.  

Cayo improved the resume` to 23 wins with 14 arriving by knockout - Diaz now drops to 36-6 with 26 via stoppage.

Post Scripts: Victor Cayo ~ age 24 - tall at 5’11 - can grow to serious contender if upgrading the power punching - just a little schooling and the kid is a valid title threat. Retain the unorthodox moves and trickery, to set up counter combinations carrying bad intentions. Worth the price of admission.

                      Julio Diaz ~ age 29 - wasn’t prepared for the stranger knocking on the door - probably saw a kid building a resume` off faceless, hapless home grown amateurs - come the opening bell reality arrives in his face. Time now for Julio to pick and choose with care among the top ten rated at jr. welter.

Referee Sam Burgos had a good outing.

Heavyweight co-feature saw Derric Rossy of Medford, Long Island, N.Y schooling Carlo Davis Drumond of Costa Rica to the tune of unanimous 99-91, 99-1, 99-91.

Rossy at age 29 the far quicker than the age 34 Drumond, dictated the choreography round after round - other than stanza nine when reacting to low blow, did he answer with brief  barrage that got Drumond’s attention.

Rest of the story: Rossy (22-2-12 KOs) ~  Good size at 6’3 -240lbs with decent mechanics - the two debits on the job application arrived courtesy of “Fast Eddie” Chambers TKO7 and Alexander Dimitrenko TKO5. No serious heavy title threat. Had ideal opponent in Drumond who was more spectator than threat.

                           Drumond (25-2, 20 KOs) nice size at 6’ 3" - 237 lbs - let the hands go in stanza eight - good enough to steal the stanza with too little too late. No future in pro boxing - male model-body builder the better choices.
