Bournemouth International Centre, Bournemouth, England. In the main event of the evening, the local cruiserweight prospect (up to 90.7 kg) Chris Billam-Smith (17-1, 12 KOs) brightly knocked out Armenda Khodjaya (14-3, 7 KOs) from Kosovo.
The local favorite started the fight as the first number, but he was too charged for early, which helped the underdog solidly – a good start from Khodjay. The underdog even managed to shock Billam-Smith with an uppercut in the 2nd three-minute period – the Briton should not forget about defensive actions.
The favorite first leveled the course of the battle, then gradually began to seize the initiative. In the 5th round, Billam-Smith caught his opponent with an uppercut – he fell hard on the canvas. It’s a knockout! Great knockout!
