Using a style that can be best
described as a 'Modified Kostya Tszyu' Mazimbaev ripped hard
hooks to both the head and body of opponent Luis Doria from
the opening bell. To his credit Colombia's Doria remained
game throughout and on more than one occasion stood his
ground and traded with the heavier handed Mazimbaev to the delight of the partisan crowd. After ten rounds of action Mazimbaev led by large margins on all three cards with one judge, Doniyor Ergashen of Uzbekistan giving him every round to lead by ten points going into what would be the bouts final round, round eleven. Early in round eleven Mazimbaev landed a hard right hand that dropped Doria flat on his back. With referee Jon Schorle issuing the count over the fallen Doria an overly exhuberant fan entered the ring prematurely and had to be removed from the ring. With the situation under control and Doria now upright on still unsteady legs referee Schorle stopped the contest at 26 seconds of round eleven giving Mazimbaev his World Title and a record that shows 17 wins against 3 losses, 1 draw and 12 knockouts. Congratulations Marat!! Promoter: German Titov in association with 'TSC Group'. Attendance: 5,000+. |
