Hernandez.
Mexican Alejandro "Payasito" Hern?ndez (27-10-2, 15 KO's) has just scored a round 5 technical KO over promising Zamboangue?o southpaw Marvin Mabait to snatch his WBO Bantamweight Inter-Continental Belt Friday night (March 28) at Polanco Forum in Ciudad de M?xico.

The fight was competitive during the initial rounds, but in the 5th stanza a sharp power right blow thrown by Hern?ndez caught an open Mabait with full-force sending the 26-year-old "Chavacano Disaster" hurt against the ropes.

Hern?ndez, 27, smelled blood. Like a lion went at his wounded prey, unleashing a furry of rapid lethal punches that forced the referee to stop the action.

The televised fight, watched live in Mexico on Claro Sports and the United States on Telemundo, was a production of Marvin Mabait's promoter Felix "Tutico" Zabala of All Star Boxing, in association with Producciones Deportivas and RB Producciones.
