Quigley, the obvious winner, took the fight by three scores of 100-90. He was happy with his work.

“I feel unbelievable,” said Quigley, of Ireland. “This is the stage I wanted to headline. I hope to be back soon. I am willing. And, of course, I’d like to fight ‘Canelo’ one day.”

De La Rosa, of Harlingten, Texas, is 23-4. He found the the scoring tough to take.

“I feel pretty good about the fight,” he said. “To be honest, I’m not a judge so I can’t make that call. I came here to fight and fight hard. The decision, that’s on the judges.”

They were Lisa Giampa, Tim Cheatham and Kermit Bayless.
