    Vic Darchinyan defeated Yonnhy Perez by a technical decision after their scheduled 12-round bantamweight fight Saturday was stopped at 1:07 of the fifth round because Perez had a cut near his eye.

    The fight at the Nokia Theatre went to the scorecards because the cut between Perez's eyes was the result of an accidental head butt.

    An extremely aggressive Darchinyan (36-3-1, 27 knockouts) dominated a listless Perez (20-2-1, 14 KOs) from beginning to end to win by three identical scores of 50-44.
