Notable fights

A match between Sechew Powell and Cornelius Bundrage on May 6, 2005, featured an extremely rare double knockdown. Both threw simultaneous rights to the chin, although the referee didn't score any single knockdowns possibly due to the shock of the occurrence. It had a feature on SportsCenter on the same day.

Another match between Allan Green and Jaidon Codrington, on November 4, 2005 featured a devastating knockout win for Green in 18 seconds. It won Ring Magazine knockout of the year for 2005.
