Dainier Pero remains undefeated with third round KO

Dainier Pero marches on unbeaten

Boxlab Promotions’ undefeated heavyweight prospect Dainier “The Fear” Pero (9-0, 7 KOs) delivered another impressive performance, stopping Willie Jake Jr. (11-6-3, 5 KOs) with a third-round knockout on the undercard of Tim Tszyu vs Bakhram Murtazaliev.

The fight took place on tonight at the Caribe Royale Resort in Orlando, Florida, where Pero extended his unbeaten record and continued to establish himself as a rising force in the heavyweight division.

From the opening bell, Pero displayed his power and precision, controlling the fight and landing heavy shots that gradually broke down Jake Jr.’s defence. Midway through the third round, a powerful right hand sent Jake Jr. to the canvas, sealing the victory for Pero in the scheduled 8-round bout.

“I felt strong and focused tonight,” said Pero. “I knew I could break him down with my power, and I stuck to the game plan we developed in training. I’m glad I was able to finish the job in the third round and put on a good show for the fans here in Orlando. This win is another big step forward for me. Staying undefeated is important, but I want to keep improving and taking on tougher challenges. My goal is to get closer to a title shot, and I believe tonight showed that I’m ready for the next level.”

“Dainier looked outstanding tonight,” said Boxlab Promotions President Amaury Piedra, who was pleased with Pero’s performance and is excited about the next chapter in his career. “He came in with a plan, executed it perfectly, and delivered a great knockout. We’re excited about what’s next for him, and we’ll be looking to step up the competition as he continues to prove himself as a top heavyweight prospect. His future is very bright, and we’re confident that he’s on track to become a serious contender in this division.”
