ESPN took its first steps into the PPV world tonight airing four entertaining fights. The night got under way with Bantamweights Raul Martinez and Jose Alfredo Tirado in a six round bout. The difference in each fighter's skills were obvious from the start. The young prospect Martinez was clearly the better fighter but Tirado was not in the ring to simply lay down, as he battled back to the best of his abilities. Martinez worked behind hard punches in bunches to cruise to an unanimous decision all the judges scoring the fight 59-55. With his win Raul Martinez improves his record to 8-0 (6 KO's) while Jose Alfredo Tirado falls to 6-6 (6 KO's).

The only heavyweight action of the night squared up Jameel McCline against Calvin Brock. Both men started the bout behind their jab trying to find an opening on the other man. A cut over Brock's eye opened in the first round but never gave him problems throughout the bout. Early in the third round a body shot seemed to hurt Brock. Brock shook it off quickly landing a right hand to McCline's head momentarily stunning him.

Brock was able to get the best of McCline from both the inside and outside at times. As expected from McCline he fought in spurts, picking the right times to let his hands go. The right time came half way in the seventh round when a left hand sent Brock flat on his back to the canvas. Brock was able to make it back to his feet and continue. McCline jumped on the still shaken Brock but was unable to send him to the canvas again as Brock turned the tables on McCline now, stunning him.

McCline may have punched himself out as he looked tired and sluggish in the eighth and ninth rounds not letting his hands go. The tenth round saw good action from both men giving as well as taking. With just seconds left in the round McCline landed a flush shot that seemed to stun Brock but it was to little to late as the bell rang to end the fight. In the end all three judges scored the fight in favor of Calvin Brock with the scores of 96-94, 96-93, and 97-93. With the win Calvin Brock keeps his record perfect now standing at 25-0 (20 KO's) while Jameel McCline drops his second straight falling to31-5-3 (19 KO's).

In the co-main event Shane Mosley tested the waters at the welterweight division, for the first time in nearly three years, against David Estrada. Three years ago Shane Mosley would have been the clear favorite without a doubt. But coming into tonight’s fight there was plenty of doubt surrounding him. Along with the drop in weight, Mosley also came into the ring with a new trainer in John David Jackson.

The fight started as expected. with Mosley out boxing Estrada. Estrada was constantly coming forward trying to put as much pressure on Mosley as he could. Estrada was able to land some nice shots but lacked the power to hurt Mosley. In the fourth round a Mosley left hand to Estrada's body hurt him badly. Estrada started to back peddle from the pain of the body shot only to take another vicious left to the body from Mosley. Estrada was able to stay on his feet through out the pain and make it out of the round. Estrada rebounded nicely in the fifth round from the body shots once again coming forward and adding pressure. To the surprise of many, Mosley abandoned the body attack letting Estrada off the hook.

Mosley was in control of the bout throughout most of the night but Estrada had his moments in a spirited effort. Mosley was the clear winner as all three judges scored it in his favor,  97-93, 98-91- and 99-91. Even with the win Mosley seemed to lack something in the ring tonight, something that he once had. Maybe it was the zip in his punches or the hunger in his belly but he didn’t appear to be the same fighter he once was. With the victory Shane Mosley ups his record to 40-4 (34 KO's) while David Estrada drops to 18-2 (9 KO's).

WBO welterweight champion Antonio Margarito and Kermit Cintron were the main event in ESPN's first boxing PPV in a bout that promised to be a barn burner. A barn burner may have been a large over statement. The first round was a feeling out round for both men. From the second round on it was all Margarito as he started to open up more with his punches. In the third round a Margarito punch opened a nasty cut over Kermit's right eye. Margarito let his hands go even more in the fourth round swarming all over Cintron forcing him to the canvas. Cintron was able to make it to his feet only to find himself on shaky legs once the action continued. Margarito again swarmed the hurt Cintron sending him to the canvas for the second time in the round. Cintron was able to escape round four only to find himself again in trouble in the fifth as Margarito continued to land his punches.

Cintron's legs were never fully under him after the first knockdown, as he found himself on the canvas for the third time in round five. Again Cintron was able to beat the count and again he was quickly sent to the canvas for the second time. To Cintron's credit he got back on his feet but the fight was stopped as Cintron's corner stepped into the ring to save their fighter from any further punishment.

Cintron busted into tears as his dream of becoming a champion came to a quick and crashing halt. On the other side of the ring Antonio Margarito's arm was raised in victory as he successfully defended his WBO title for the fourth time. Antonio Margarito has always been there, maybe now with his win over Cintron more people will notice him. The time of the stoppage came at two minutes and twelve seconds of the fifth round. With the win Antonio Margarito improves his record to 32-4 (23 KO's) while Kermit Cintron tastes defeat for the first time falling to 24-1 (22 KO's).
