SecondsOut.com - This past Friday night at Dover Downs in Dover, Delaware, undefeated Heavyweight, Amir “Hardcore” Mansour remained perfect by scoring a sixth round stoppage over former Light heavyweight world title challenger Epifanio Mendoza and captured the WBF Intercontinental Championship.

Mansour and Mendoza thrilled the sellout crowd at Dover Downs with Mansour throwing some wicked shots to the head and body of Mendoza. Mendoza showed a good defense and decent counter punching ability. Tensions grew during the fight as both landed shots after the bell that nearly incited a brawl.

In the sixth, Mansour landed a huge flurry of punches that forced the corner of Mendoza to throw in the towel.

Mansour, ranked number seven by the WBO raised his mark to 16-0 with twelve knockouts and he indicated the he is ready to take on anybody in the top ten.

Mendoza fought well but he falls to 32-13-1.

In the co-feature, Light Heavyweight Anthony Caputo Smith, had a few tense moments but scored an incredible final round stoppage over Douglas Okola in a six round bout.

Smith was dropped and then cut badly over his right eye and it was looking like his perfect mark would be falling by the wayside. In the final round Okola walked into a huge left hook that put him down and out and in an instant Smith scored the knockout.

Smith is now 12-0 with ten knockouts.

On the undercard Veteran Dorin Spivey scored his 40th professional victory with a solid six round unanimous decision over rugged and tough as nails Angel Rios in a Lightweight bout.

Spivey boxed well by putting some solid combinations together. Rios never had any quit in him and kept coming forward and even buckled Spivey during the fight.

Spivey will now look to jump into the rankings when he takes on Victor Vasquez on February 4th. Ironically, Vasquez was ringside calling the action with Marc Abrams during this bout.

Mike Tiberi made it 18-1 with a solid six round unanimous decision over Puerto Rico’s Emill Gonzalez in a Super Middleweight bout.
