IBO champ Julius Indongo had just made a title defense against Amir Khan on April 30th - 15UD & decided to have a quick turnaround against (he hoped) a rusty former champ in Josh Taylor. Josh last fought in Feb of 2022 & early on Julius looked much sharper until the 3rd when the rust started to fall off as Josh found his rhythm.

As the fight wore on, the champ started to show his age & looked 40 as Josh took over & the ref had seen enough at 2:12 of the 7th with Josh up 30-0 in PL.

The cards read 59-56 & 58-57 twice for Josh & he also had the PL edge 260 (40%) to 156 (61%)

Josh is now 6-1 (6 KO's) his only loss due to a cut when he lost his IBF belt.

Indongo's now 14-3.
