Andres Cortes remained unbeaten with a solid but somewhat strange victory over Mark Magsayo, who may have set a new record for amount of times a fighter was knocked down but officially wasn't, and a late rally from Magsayo wasn't nearly enough.
Two knockdown calls by referee Celestino Ruiz were reversed, and Magsayo was down without being ruled down twice after that, which was probably the most memorable thing about the fight.
The former featherweight ****** leholder Magsayo (29-3, 19 KO) did show some signs of life late in the fight, but it couldn't overcome the earlier lead built by Cortes, who improves to 26-0 (13 KO).
