Bruce Carrington vs. Mateus Heita -- for the Interim WBC Featherweight title -- starts now...

Bruce Carrington controls that first round... jab is on point... throwing it off of an occasional feint, too... great work to start.

Heita actually landed nicely on Shu Shu a couple of times in Round 2...

Bruce Carrington will win by however he feels like ending this.

That should probably be a Bruce Carrington 12-0 sweep. Heita didn't have much on these punches, so Carrington was never in real danger.

Official: Bruce Carrington is the new WBC Interim Featherweight Champion. Scores: 120-108, 119-109 x2 against Mateus Heita.

Bruce Carrington called out Rafael Espinoza, the current WBO Featherweight Champion.

Xander Zayas and Jorge Garcia ringwalks coming momentarily.

As expected, loud ovation for Xander Zayas ...

Felt like Xander Zayas was more accurate in Round 1... clinching everytime Jorge Garcia gets inside. Garcia landed a couple of nice looping right hands. Zayas effective to the body.

2-0 Zayas. Better in Round 2 than 1. Absolutely wants to hit from range and found his first. Clinching every time Garcia pressures. And it's smart. Zayas and his team did homework...

i think it's 3-0... there's a 2-1 case but ... Garcia needs more... Zayas not letting him get inside is making a difference.

Swelling on Jorge Garcia's left eye.

Jorge Garcia hasn't figured out this fight yet. Garcia wants this fight inside. Xander Zayas's craftiness, jab and footwork is making this a counter punching battle. Advantage Zayas so far.

Xander Zayas needs to keep jabbing. Unlike Jorge Garcia, he's actually landing that jab consistently when he throws, and it's setting up his other shots, especially to the body... Garcia is just throwing. Trying to force his rhythm.

Xander Zayas straight up outclassed a tough opponent in Jorge Garcia. Boxed really well, won the jab battle, showcased good footwork, and landed to the body consistently. People will complain about the holding, take that up with the ref.

Final scorecards: 116-112 118-110 119-109 Xander Zayas -- at 22 years old -- is the new WBO Super Welterweight Champion, and he wins via unanimous decision.

Xander Zayas leaves with his new WBO Super Welterweight Title.
