Lovemore N'dou's power proved too much for the spirited challenge of Gavin Rees as N'dou knocked Rees out with an uppercut in the 13th round in defense of his WBC 140lb belt.
Early on, the fact that Rees was 9 years younger looked like it would carry the day as Gavin's hand speed appeared to be too much for the old champ to handle. But as the rounds wore on, N'dou's superior power paid off as he forced the tiring Rees to exchange more - dropping Gavin twice before ending the fight in the 13th.
N'dou was up 311 to 281 in PL & on all 3 cards: 115-111, 115-110 & 114-111.
N'dou moves to 19-2 & Rees is now 9-2.
