Unbeaten welterweight prospect Jamontay Clark (11-0, 7 KOs) stopped tough Japanese challenger Gaku Takahashi (15-7-1, 7 KOs) after seven rounds in the opening bout of PBC on FS1 on March 14, 2017 from Fitz Tunica Casino & Hotel in Tunica, Mississippi.
Clark, a southpaw from Cincinnati, survived an early stumbled as Takahashi connected with a jab that stunned him midway through the first round. But Clark recovered and was able to regain his footing and use his jab as his primary mode of attack.
"The Quiet Assassin" began timing Takahashi with left hands and right hooks and was able to control the action each round. Takahashi attempted to match Clark's punch output, specifically targeting his opponent to the body, but was unable to land enough clean blows.
Takahashi came out aggressive in round seven and initiated several big exchanges. It was Clark who got the better of these moments, hitting Takahashi with a big left hand late in the round that left his opponent temporarily stunned, although able to return to his corner. But Takahashi's corner had seen enough however and called an end to the fight at the end of the seventh round.
