IBO TITLE
Bryant Jennings 25-3-1 (15) vs Magomed Abdusalamov 25-2-1 (20)
(1st Defense)
Magomed vowed to make the best of his fourth title try and he rocked Jennings with a left hand early in the opening round, Abdusalamov racked up rounds with punishing rights and lefts that had Jennings left eye ballooning by the end of round five. Bryant started scoring with right hands in the sixth to make things more competitive but he was still way behind when he hurt Magomed in the eighth with an uppercut and then floored the challenger in round nine with a brutal hook, the follow up barrage left an exhausted Abdusalamov helpless on the ropes and the fight was stopped.
Derek Chisora 21-1 (14) vs George Foreman III 28-5-1 (17)
No need sugar coating this, with the exception of two massive right hands in the fourth round, Foreman took a brutal beating. Del Boy set the tone when he floored Mon with a right hand early in round one and both of his eyes had gruesome swelling when he was dumped by another right late in the seventh and finished early by a combo in round eight.
Tommy Zbikowski 22-0 (16) vs Emad Ali 24-5-3 (8)
Ali scored with a few jabs over the opening minute of the fight, Zbikowski jumped in with a right hand and a counter hook opened a hideous gash on Tommy Z's right eyebrow, after consulting with the doctor the referee immediately stopped the fight pinning Zbikowski with his first loss and the former WBA champion with a big win.
