Ray Beltran overcame the very determined challenge of Newark's Carlos Viran to finally stop him after 7 rounds. The southpaw Beltran started off quickly in the first round, landing many hard right hooks to the head of Vinan but Vinan not only weathered the storm but took control of the fight and swept the second, third and fourth rounds. Just as it appeared the fight was slipping away from the Freddie Roach trained Beltran, however, he awoke in round five and started putting a hurting on Vinan, particularly in the seventh round when Vinan had no answer for the right hooks of Beltran which thudded repeatedly off the head of Vinan.
The corner of Vinan wisely stopped the bout before the eighth round could begin to save their valiant fighter from further damage. By TKO victory, Beltran captures the vacant USBA lightweight title and improves to 24-4 (16KO) while Vinan, who fought at an ability well above his record would indicate, drops to 10-9-4 (2KO).
