In Philadelphia, heavyweight Sonny Conto remained undefeated with a second round stoppage in a scheduled six-round main event at the 2300 Arena.
James Bryant shot right out of his corner, and went after Conto. The Philadelphia native engaged in a back and forth brawl and dropped Bryant with a hard left hand just before the bell sounded to end the opening frame. In round two, Conto continued to pound away until Bryant was weary, and the fight was stopped by the corner at 2:13.
Conto of Philadelphia is now 11-0 with nine knockouts. Bryant of Pittsburgh is 6-2.
Brady, Johnson and Conto are promoted by Top Rank.
