\nIn the main event of the evening, Anthony Marsella, Jr. (11-0, 5 KO\u2019s) peppered Mexican Jorge Rodriguez (10-4, 10 KO\u2019s) into submission after three short rounds. The card was promoted by Jimmy Burchfield\u2019s CES Boxing at Twin River Casino in Lincoln, RI.<\/p>\n

Rodriguez hung tough for a few rounds but was totally outclassed and overmatched by Marsella\u2019s pedigree. Marsella earned the vacant local IBA Americas Junior Welterweight Championship with the victory.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
