Baltimore, MD super lightweight Malik "Iceman" Hawkins has been stopped in the seventh round by Subriel "Browny" Matias of Fajardo, Puerto Rico Saturday at the Mohegan Sun Casino in Uncasville, CT. The bout was televised by Showtime.
Hawkins started the bout well in the first round by using his jab effectively. However, as the bout continued, he found it difficult to keep the forward-charging Matias off of him. Matias was very effective with punches to the head and the body. Hawkins had little defense against Matias's offense. Eventually, the ringside doctor said that Hawkins could not continue and the bout was stopped at the first second of the seventh round.
Hawkins loses for the very first time and he is now 18-1, 11 KO's. Matias bounces back from his first pro defeat and he is now 16-1, 16 KO's.
