The latest edition of the Elite XC developmental series, ShoXC, debuted on Showtime Friday night, crowning Wilson Reis the first ever 140lb champion in the organization by defeating Abel Cullum by unanimous decision.

Reis was able to erase the memory of his last fight, a close decision win over Brian Caraway in which his cardio looked suspect at best, by out working a game opponent for all 5 rounds of the title bout.

The Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu fighter was able to control the ground game and while he was not able to finish Cullum, he did sustain the pace and keep the fight in his hands the entire time.

In other action, Shane Del Rosario kept his record perfect by finishing off Carl Seumanatafa in the 2nd round. After landing a couple of devastating knees to the body, Del Rosario followed up with a big punch on the feet and a few more on the ground before the fight was stopped.

David Douglas pulled out a hard fought win over Muay Thai fighter, Malaipet, getting the stoppage by TKO after getting the mount and reigning down shots on his opponent and opening a huge cut over Malaipet’s eye.

Wilson Reis def. Abel Cullum by unanimous decision (49-46, 48-47, 49-46)
