Petersons Remain Undefeated in Illinois!

The Peterson Brothers kept their undefeated records intact with convinicing victories last night at the Par-A-Dice Casino in Peoria, IL.

In the main event, Lamont Peterson scored a seventh-round TKO over Omar Bernal of Mexico. According to Fightnews.com, Bernal landed good body shots early, but Lamont's speed and movement ultimately proved too much. Peterson mixed his attack well and worked the angles against the forward moving Bernal, ending the fight in the 7th round with a brutal single left hook to the body that crumpled the Mexican to the canvas for the count. Lamont raised his record to 18-0, eight KO's.

In the co-feature, Anthony Peterson stayed behind his guard and worked off his sharp jab, opening up the attack in the later rounds and easily controlling a defensive minded Armando Cordoba to take a unanimous 6 round decision. With the win, Anthony lifts his record to 20-0, 15 KO's.
