ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. (AP) — WBA and WBO super bantamweight champion Guillermo Rigondeaux retained his titles with a 12-round, unanimous decision over former two-time bantamweight champ Joseph Agbeko at Boardwalk Hall’s Adrian Phillips Ballroom on Saturday night.

Judges Eugene Grant (120-108), Ron McNair (120-108) and Robin Taylor (120-108) all had Rigondeaux winning every round.

“I came to do what I need to do,” Rigondeaux said through an interpreter. “Every time out there, I try to improve. I’m improving every day. I had no problems in any round.”
