It wasn't the most popular of decisions when referee Joey Lupino stepped between Peter Manfredo, Jr. and Donny McCrary and stopped the fight between the two 1:24 into the second round with Manfredo walking away with the knockout victory at the Twin River Casino in Lincoln, R.I.
Manfredo hit McCrary with a hard left hook to knock him down early in the second round.
"That's my left hook, baby," Manfredo said. "It's been working for me all training camp and I just saw him crumble to the floor."
Lupino checked McCrary and determined the fight could continue, but Manfredo followed with a combination which left McCrary unable to defend himself.
The second-round knockout gave Manfredo, Jr. the NABF interim super middleweight championship belt.
