Ohan pushed the pace in the second, throwing crisp combinations, effectively countering as well.<\/p>\n<p>In the third, Sosa came out more aggressively, keeping Ohan off balance, but Ohan soon regained control. Ohan used his jab more in the fourth and two rights to the head and two lefts to the body put Ohan back in total control.<\/p>\n<p>In total command, Ohan cruised in the fifth and pressed the action the sixth against a game Sosa, who kept coming back every time he looked like the fight was about to be over, right to the final bell.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe (Sosa) is a tough journeyman,\u201d Ohan said after the fight. \u201cHe\u2019s gone the distance with some good guys. It was a good fight and now we move on to the next one. I\u2019ll talk to Chris (promoter Traietti) and see what\u2019s next.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ohan often went to Sosa\u2019s body<\/p>\n<p>In the co-featured event, New Bedford (MA) light heavyweight Edet \u201cPapito\u201d Mkpanam (8-0, 7 KOs) remained undefeated, knocking out Larry \u201cSlo Mo\u201d Smith (13-51-2, 9 KOs) in the third round with a vicious right to the head. Referee Jackie Morrel immediately waved off the fight as soon as Smith hit the canvas.<\/p>\n<p>Mkpanam had nearly put Smith to sleep early in the second round with a left hook that put Smith on his back. The resilient Smith, however, beat the count and continued against his heavy-handed opponent.<\/p>\n<p>The scheduled co-feature for the vacant Massachusetts Middleweight Championship between Julien \u201cBlack Dragon\u201d Baptiste (4-2, 2 KOs) and Anthony \u201cThe Gentle Savage\u201d Andreozzi (3-2, 1 KO) was canceled midway through the show because Andreozzi became ill in the locker room.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was another great show,\u201d Granite State Promotions president Chris Traietti commented. \u201cThe Vets Club draws real boxing fans. Everyone stepped up, the hometown guys as well as the out-of-town fighters. Ohan fought an experienced guy and got in some quality rounds. I\u2019m excited about his future.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Explosive junior middleweight Luke Iannuccillo (3-0, 2 KOs), of Methuen (MA), pounded cagey Las Vegas fighter Rynell Griffin (80-54-2, 2 KOs) from the opening bell, at one point landing 24 unanswered punches when he pinned Griffin on the ropes. Iannuccillo\u2019s dominance lasted right to the end for a shutout, winning all four rounds on each of the three judges\u2019 scorecards.<\/p>\n<p>Brockton\u2019s (MA) David \u201cThe Blessed One\u201d Ribeiro (1-0-1, 1 KO) and Rhode Island junior middleweight Alfred \u201cKeenan\u201d Raymond (1-2-1 (0 KOs) fought to a 4-round draw. Riberio, a 20202 New England Golden Gloves champion, started cautiously and fought tentatively for the first two rounds, but he let his go much more in the third, effectively countering the awkward fighting Raymond. It wasn\u2019t enough in the end, though, to pull out a win for the local favorite.<\/p>\n<p>In the opening bout, Brockton heavyweight Kirk Wilmart (1-0, 1 KOs) had an impressive pro debut, flooring Wewerton Silveira Silva (0-4) three times, the last signalling the end as the fight was stopped late in round one.<\/p>\n<p>Complete results below:<\/p>\n<p>__________________________________________________________________________<\/p>\n<p>OFFICIAL RESULTS<\/p>\n<p>MAIN EVENT \u2013 JUNIOR WELTERWEIGHTS<\/p>\n<p>Mike Ohan, Jr. (16-1, 9 KO), Holbrook, MA<\/p>\n<p>WDEC6 (59-55, 59-55, 57-57).<\/p>\n<p>Jonathan Ariel Sosa (7-14-2, 4 KOs), San Martin, Buenos Aires, Argentina<\/p>\n<p>CO-FEATURE \u2013 LIGHT HEAVYWEIGHTS<\/p>\n<p>Edet Mkpanam (8-0, 7 KOs), New Bedford, MA<\/p>\n<p>WTKO3 (1:05)<\/p>\n<p>Larry Smith (13-51-2, 9 KOs), Dallas, TX<\/p>\n<p>HEAVYWEIGHTS<\/p>\n<p>Kirk Wilmart (1-0, 1 KO), Brockton, MA<\/p>\n<p>WTKO1 (2:22)<\/p>\n<p>Wewerton Silveira Silva (0-4), Woburn, MA by way of Brazil<\/p>\n<p>JUNIOR MIDDLEWEIGHTS<\/p>\n<p>Luke Iannuccilli (3-0, 2 KOs), Methuen, MA<\/p>\n<p>WSEC4 (40-35, 40-36, 40-36)<\/p>\n<p>Rynell Griffin (8-54-2, 2 KOs), Las Vegas, NV<\/p>\n<p>David Ribeiro (1-0-1, 1 KO), Brockton, MA<\/p>\n<p>D4 (39-37, 37-39, 38-38)<\/p>\n<p>Alfred Raymond (1-3-1, 0 KOs), Warwick, RI<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(L) Mike Ohan Jr\u2019s boxing skills on display (Picture by Emily Harney\/Fightography) Popular junior welterweight Mike \u201cBad Man\u201d Ohan turned in a workmanlike performance in last night\u2019s \u201cThe Next Chapter,\u201d presented by Granite Chin Promotions, on a very hot ,humid evening at Bridgewater Veterans Club in Bridgewater, Massachusetts.
