In the main event of the second Kings Promotions card Hagerstown, MD's Genc Pllana stopped Brandon Robinson of Upper Darby, PA by KO at 33 seconds of the eighth round.
Pllana is know for his awkward boxing style and Saturday night he made it work to his advantage by using his jab finally get the distance he needed to land a hard right hand in the corner that put Robinson down to end the fight.
Pllana improves his record to 9-3-1, (5 KO's) and Robinson is now 15-3, (10KO's).

Frederick, Md's Devar Ferhadi won by eight-round unanimous decision over Blake Mansfield of Burlington, NC in another super middleweight contest that took place Saturday night on that Kings Promotions action packed card.
(Report from photographer Daniel Cork), Devar impressive throughout. Mansfield got in several tough exchanges but Devar rolled with them very well. Judges scored the the bout 80-72 and 79-73 twice for Ferhardi.
Devar Ferhardi keeps a undefeated record of 9-0, (7 KO's) while Mansfield falls to 7-4-1, 4 KO's).
Bowie, MD's Greg Outlaw suffers his first defeat to Andrew Rodgers of Elkhart, IN. (Report from photographer Daniel Cork), Outlaw was really sharp early on but faded in the middle rounds. Outlaw was knocked down in round 5. Rodgers won by unanimous decision with scores of 57-56 and 58-55 twice.
Outlaw now has a record of 8-1, (3 KO's) while Rodgers adds a win to his record of 5-9-2, (2 KO's).
Edgar Torres of Woodbridge, VA gets stopped at 46 seconds into round one of a scheduled six-round welterweight bout by Kashan Hutchinson of Reading, PA. Hutchinson landed a number of head shots and then added more power to send Torres into the ropes that caused the fight to be stopped. Hutchinson is now 8-5, (2 KO's) while Torres has a disappointing return and falls to 8-8-1, (4 KO's).
Edgar Torres, not much to add beyond that which I posted. Hutchinson came on strong from the start and troubled Edgar early, getting the stoppage at 0:46 of 1 on what would’ve been the first knockdown, Torres held up by the ropes
