Round 6: Wilder finally starts landing that right hand early in round six, backing Herndon up with heavy, clubbing shots. A big right pins Herndon to the ropes and Wilder unloads a combination, hammering away.
Two more rights crash down on Herndon’s— the ref gives him a count. Wilder swings wildly, looking for the finish, and smashes Herndon with a straight right to the chin on the inside.
Right as the bell rings, Wilder drops Herndon with another big shot — sending him to the canvas just as the round ends.
The bell is the only thing keeping Herndon in this fight. He barely makes it to his corner.
Round 5: Wilder continues to dominate, racking up points with his jab and left hooks — his shots are scoring clean, but they’re not really wearing Herndon down.
Herndon looks like he’s fading a bit late in the round, but he’s still hanging in there and hasn’t looked close to going out yet but has lost every round so far.
Round 4: Wilder lands a solid left hook to the side of Herndon’s head, then follows with an overhand right — partly blocked, but it still shoves Herndon back.
Herndon finally gets inside and actually lands a few clean shots, testing Wilder and showing he’s not just target practice.
It’s the first sign that if Herndon can close the distance and let his hands go, he might be able to give Wilder some problems.
Then, just before the bell, Wilder blasts Herndon with a left hook that clearly rocks him. Biggest shot of the fight so far.
Round 3: Third round starts and Wilder immediately lands two hard left hands in the first 30 seconds — Herndon eats them both. Wilder keeps that active jab pumping, controlling distance and tempo.
Wilder’s left hand shines, the right still looking for answers. Wilder’s sheer size and long reach are keeping Herndon stuck on the outside, unable to get close. The Bronze Bomber is landing clean scoring shots — jabs and hooks piling up points — but he hasn’t landed anything that’s rattled Herndon so far.
Round 2: Wilder cracks Herndon with a clean left hook early — Herndon actually avoids the follow-up right, but that’s about the only highlight for him this round.
Wilder keeps pumping out the long jab, controlling the ring easily. Then, near the end of the round, Wilder lands a hook to the chest that sends Herndon down.
Herndon tries to sell it as a slip..
Round 1: Wilder comes out massive — looks like he packed on extra muscle just to remind Herndon how small he is. He opens with three quick left hands and immediately takes control, snapping out an active jab that keeps Herndon on the defensive.
Wilder whiffs on a big right around the two-minute mark, but let’s be real — Herndon’s just moving his head, not throwing anything back.
Nico Hernandez knocks out Ledesma in round 2
Nico Hernandez didn’t waste any time, hammering Robert Ledesma with nasty body shots late in the first round that forced him to a knee.
Then came round two — and Hernandez went straight back to the ribs, dropping Ledesma again early. Barely a minute in, Hernandez unleashed another savage combo that sent Ledesma down for good. Count couldn’t save him.
Gustavo Trujillo beats Lateef Kayode by TKO
Gustavo Trujillo spent six rounds turning Lateef Kayode into a heavy bag. Kayode looked stiff from the start, throwing the occasional punch but mostly getting pounded.
By the sixth, Trujillo was teeing off at will. Kayode’s corner finally threw in the towel, sparing him more punishment at 2:15. Trujillo stays perfect at 8-0. Kayode slides to 22-6 and probably woke up this morning wondering what day it was.
Aaron Casper beats Jeff Page Jr. by unanimous decision

Page, stepping into the ring after eight years away, looked rusty and tired by the end. He drops to 18-4 and might want to think twice before taking another long holiday.
