Conyers looked good early as he used his length and stuck out the jab that seemed to confuse Cruz early. Cruz rocked and then sent Conyers down to the canvas at the end of the opening frame. Conyers was able to regain his composure and fight well in spots over the rest of the fight. Cruz , who is normally an orthodox fighter, fought most of the fight from the southpaw stance. Cruz would later state that it was something he saw in the first round that he was able to exploit Conyers.
The two had many back and forth exchanges with Cruz getting the better of most of those flurries. Cruz landed some solid combinations with Conyers trying to fire back which thrilled the capacity crowd at Ballys in Atlantic City.
Cruz got stronger down the stretch and came home with the most impressive victory to date,
Cruz, who was ranked number fifteen by the IBF raises his perfect ledger to 16-0.
