In the main event of a card promoted by Legacy Boxing Promotions at the Embassy Suites in Albuquerque, New Mexico, Cabral scored a unanimous decision, but had to work very hard, and survive a knock-down to do so.

The first three rounds was a mixture of toe-to-toe action and Cabral appearing to be in control, coming forward with Sollano attempting to counter his attacks.

But in round four things really ignited, as the two boxers traded and Sollano caught Cabral with a left hook, sending the home-man down, and a shiver through the crowd.

Cabral beat the count of referee Robert Velez, and came back strong, turning the tide and had Sollano in trouble after landing several hard punches.

It was incredible action, which continued in round five. Cabral slightly had the upper hand, but Sollano remained dangerous and kept him on his toes.

Round six was more back and fourth, and just as you thought one of the boxers was about to gas out, he came right back and landed significant punches.

However, Cabral appeared to have more energy in a strong round seven, but needed a time-out when Sollano landed a hard but unintentional low-blow.

The fight finished with a relatively slow-paced round eight, compared to the previous seven, but in most fights it would have been considered action-packed.

After eight amazing stanzas, judges Esther Lopez and Anthony Romero both scored it 77-74, while judge Mark Sanchez had it 76-75, all for Cristian Cabral, who improved his record to 12-2-2 (5). Sollano drops to 5-1 (2).
