The day started in Dublin, Ireland, with Anthony Cacace doing just enough to win the WBA junior lightweight title by unanimous decision over James "Jazza" Dickens.
Not much to say about this one other than the right guy won (116-112, which was my score, 116-113, and 115-113) and could defend against Ryan Garner, who won on the undercard.
The action wasn't much better from Anaheim, California, where Arnold Barboza dominated a welterweight eliminator over Kenneth Sims and won a unanimous decision.
Barboza won by scores of 120-108, 118-110, and 117-111.
I scored Barboza the winner 119-109.
Oscar Collazo kept his WBA and WBO minimum/strawweight titles when lightly regarded challenger Jesus Haro retired on his stool at the end of the sixth round.
Collazo hammered Haro's body and ground down his opponent, and the retirement saved Haro from a longer pounding.
Alexis Rocha controlled a spent Joseph Diaz and cruised to a unanimous decision win.
Diaz occasionally landed a strong shot but was overmatched by the larger and more powerful Rocha.
Rocha's victorious scores were: 100-90 (same as mine), 98-92, and 97-93.
