“Prime Time” Jones extends KO streak

Unbeaten super lightweight prospect Dion “Prime Time” Jones (6-0, 6 KOs) stopped Local Jader Esquivia (3-19-2, 1 KO) in round 1. The bout will took place at the Coliseo Cubierto de Pescaito in Santa Marta, Colombia. Jones followed the instructions of his trainer Jeff Mayweather and immediately established his jab within the early seconds of the fight while switching from conventional to the southpaw stance periodically. Esquivia was game and responded by pressing Jones but not landing anything significant as Jones footwork and handspeed kept him off balance. During the midway point of round one Jones opened up a rapid combination on Esquivia off the ropes. Esquivia attempting to fire back appeard to hurt his hand firing at Jones’ midsection. He dropped to the canvas immediately following the punch motioning to his right hand in obvious pain. Esquivia was unable to continue and the referee waved the bout off. The fight was just getting warmed up but had a nice pace going. Unfortunate set of circumstances as Esquivia pushed an unbeaten prospect near the six round distance in his previous bout. Jones for his part was extremely sharp and more than ready for his first scheduled six round bout.
