Two Southern California prospects met early in their careers

The official weigh-in listed Carrillo at 125 pounds and Basulto at 121.8. Their four-round assignment opened the main card of Tom Loeffler’s 360 Promotions event.

Pressure and ring control favored Carrillo over the distance

Two awarded Carrillo every round, while the third gave Basulto one. The unanimous verdict therefore reflected agreement on the winner even though one judge saw a slightly closer contest.

The result added another unbeaten winner beneath the championship bouts

Carrillo improved to 5–0–1 with two knockouts, while Basulto fell to 3–1. The victory continued the Oxnard prospect’s development through a full-distance assignment against another previously unbeaten boxer.

The same program included Guadalupe Medina’s split decision over Rubi Gutierrez and Abel Mejia’s second-round stoppage of Aston Palicte. Carrillo’s result supplied the earlier main-card decision before those more dramatic contests unfolded.
