Luis Arias Gives "Swift" Jarrett Hurd His Second Defeat!

On Sunday night, June 6, Jarrett Hurd lost by split decision in a 10-round middleweight contest to Luis Arias on the Floyd Mayweather vs. Logan Paul undercard at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, Florida.

Arias landed hard right hands throughout the early rounds of their bout to establish a lead on the judges scorecards. Hurd spent a lot of time trying to do some inside work where he land a few of his famous uppercut that normally would end fights for him. That strategy worked in favor for Arias because most of Hurd's shot were smothered and not as effective. When Hurd kept his distance he was able to land some good jabs that backed up Arias. Unfortunately for Arias a slip was scored as a knockdown for Hurd midway through the bout. As the tenth round drew near Hurd and Arias had some good exchanges. Both fighters battled until the final bell sounded. 

Judge John Rupert scored their fight 95-93 for Hurd, but he was overruled by judges Mark Streisand (97-93) and Toby Tamarkin (96-93) giving Arias the split decision win.

Hurd suffers the second defeat of his career and now is 24-2, (16 KO's) while Arias improves to 19-2-1, (9 KO's).
