8:30 p.m. ET: Punches have been thrown at the MGM Grand. Three fights’ worth of them, as a matter of fact. The pre pay-per-view portion of the undercard began and has continued in front of a less-than-half-full building, with Chris Pearson and Lanell Bellows winning their middleweight and super middleweight bouts by first-round stoppages, followed by Ronald Gavril winning an eight-round unanimous decision over Shujaa El Amin in an eight-round super middleweight bout. Now in the ring, super middleweights Luis Arias and James Winchester for a six-rounder.
