Lots of knockouts tonight in boxing.
Some real chains were broken and smashed to pieces tonight in boxing with a night full of knockouts.
Zuffa Boxing 03 was the best card yet for Zuffa and TKO with six knockouts from eight fights. They broke through the early teething problems and are up and running now.
Alvarado had a great in in the fourth a short time ago here:
Great win.
Well done.
Here are the key facts on the fight (from Zuffa Boxing 03 on February 15, 2026, at Meta APEX in Las Vegas), plus the fighters’ statuses after tonight:
- Fighters: Emiliano Alvarado vs. Devin Gantt (super featherweight/lightweight bout on the preliminary card)
- Result: Alvarado wins by TKO in Round 4 (ropes held Gantt up; referee stoppage after Gantt was overwhelmed and unable to continue effectively)
- How it ended: Alvarado dominated, dropping/rocking Gantt repeatedly; fight stopped as Gantt was trapped on the ropes and no longer defending intelligently
- Event context: Part of Zuffa Boxing 03 prelims (streamed on Paramount+); the full card featured 8 fights with 6 finishes overall, described as the promotion’s best night yet
After tonight (as of February 16, 2026):
- Emiliano Alvarado: Secures the TKO victory; improves his prospect standing with a strong stoppage win in a development bout
- Devin Gantt: Suffers the TKO loss; takes a setback against a rising opponent
All in all — another great knockout victory in boxing.
He advances to big things next up.
Russia had a new star on the card tonight also in action with a stoppage win here.
