York Hall, London, UK. In the main event of the evening, the vacant title of the WBC international champion in the second bantamweight (up to 55.3 kg) was played by Briton Brad Foster (14-2-2, 5 KOs) and upset specialist (especially in Britain) Ionuts Baluta (15-3, 3 KO) from Romania. The guest did it again!
The duel turned out to be quite competitive, but Foster was not enough for the entire distance. He was very tired in the decisive rounds, which predetermined the fate of the fight. Judges’ verdict: 98-94, 97-93 and 97-93 in favor of the boxer from Romania.
An incredibly close fight goes the distance!

Opening for British Super Bantamweight Prospect (up to 55.3 kg)
Andrew Kane (10-0, 9 KOs) destroyed the Mexican
Luis Moreno (10-3, 6 KOs) in the opening round.
Kane dropped his opponent with a beautiful uppercut. He got to his feet, but was soon back on the floor. The referee decided it was time to stop the fight.
And just like that @AndrewCainERT gets it done!
