Sigmon
(36) defeated old foe and friend Nick Kisner,
almost five years after losing their first
encounter by majority decision, and also picked
up the vacant WBC USA title in the process.
It was
expected to be a good fight, much like the
original, but unfortunately it was an
anticlimactic triumph for Sigmon, as the bout
was halted before it really caught fire when
Kisner was forced to retire before the start of
round three with torn biceps.
While
they have been friends a long time, both men had
promised to put that aside and give the fans
another entertaining fight, and the first two
rounds did offer good exchanges. It could have
been a barn-burner, but it was not to be.
