Two Brooklyners, fittingly, got it on in the first fight at the brand-new Barclays Center, the gleaming centerpiece to the Prospect Heights neighborhood in Brooklyn. Boyd Melson tangled with Jason Thompson in a junior middleweight scrap set for six rounds, and the tiff ended up a "kissin' your sis" special; they fought to a draw, according to the judges, by scores of 56-56, times three. Melson, with a straight left to the body, landed the first punch in boxing's debut, which was promoted by Golden Boy.
