Barrera, Mosely, Chavez post wins in Vegas

LAS VEGAS (MGM Grand) – Marco Antonio Barrera, 61-4, 1 NC (42 KOs), Mexico, 130, scored a resoundingly clear 12 round decision over Robbie Peden, 25-3 (14 KOs), Australia, 130, to unify the WBC and IBF 130 pound titles, Sept. 17.

Undercard:

Shane Mosely, 41-4 (35 KOs), Pomona, Calif., 148, cruised past Jose Luis Cruz, 33-1-2 (27 KOs), Santa Ana, Calif. (via Mexico) 148, to win a clear, though lackluster 10 round decision.

Jesus Chavez, 42-3 (28 KOs), Austin, Texas, 135, captured the IBF lightweight title with an 11 round stoppage of defending titlist Leavander Johnson, 34-5-2 (26 KOs), Atlantic City, N.J., 135 in a bout that led to Johnson ending up in an operating room in an effort to save his life.
