O'CONNOR DEFEATS HARTMAN

Southpaw prospect Danny O'Connor had an easy day at the office as he dropped Travis Hartman twice en route to a clear cut four round decision.

O'Connor (6-0, 2 KOs ) dropped Hartman in the opening moments of the fight with a straight left hand. Hartman (9-12-1, 7 KOs ) spent the majority of the next three rounds backpedaling as O'Connor stalked.

In round four, O'Connor dropped Hartman again, this time with a series of body punches. When Hartman rose, he was quickly met by O'Connor who muscled his opponent onto the ropes. Referee Joe Lupino appeared moments from stopping the bout when the final bell did that for him. All three judges scored the fight 40-34 in O'Connor's favor. – Courtesy of Fightnews.com
