WBC JWW title
Humberto Soto took the money & agreed to make his 3rd title defense in Namibia against Julius Indongo.
In the 1st Soto tried to knock out the lanky African but Indongo held on. His length gave Soto problems & in the 3rd a big left cross sent Soto to the canvas.
Indongo appeared to take control of the fight with his boxing ability but in the 9th & 10th, Soto came back & looked take back control against the tiring Julius. He weathered that storm regained his 2nd wind & in the 14th a right hook sent Soto to the canvas again. This time Julius kept punching until the ref stepped in @ 2:11 as Indongo became the new champ.
He was up 126-122 & 125-121 twice on the cards & out punched Soto: 446 (32%) to 216 (33%).
Note - I used the updated 6 rating from Ice Tea so both fighters were 6's.
