For Aronica it was a tough road as this was his first amateur bout and he was facing an undefeated fighter. With the win, Burgos is on the short list for challenging for the 140 lb EFC title.

In other action, Jovany Alvarez (3-0) defeated Florentino Laureano (0-2) by armbar in Round 2.

Laureano made one small mistake on the ground and that was all it took for Alvarez to seize his arm and hyper-extend it for the tapout victory. A great showing by Alvarez against a very game opponent.
