Zenith metropole, Nantes, France. In the main event of the evening, the local world champion in the not very prestigious IBA version in the light middleweight (up to 69.9 kg) David Papo (27-0-1, 4 KOs) snatched a difficult victory from his compatriot
Bilela Zhkitu (15-2, 6 KOs).
From the starting gong Zhkitu rushed to put pressure on his opponent. Papo accepted the fight as the second number without any problems: he failed a sweeping opponent well, countered well in infighting.
The pressure from the applicant gradually began to bear fruit. It seemed that he completely seized the initiative closer to the championship rounds, but this was not enough – Zhkit needed a knockout (or a couple of knockdowns).
Did not work out. Judges score: 116-112, 115-112 and 116-113.
Papo UD 12.
York Hall, London, UK. In the main event of the show in the super lightweight limit (up to 63.5 kg), the local prospect Harlem Eubank (16-0, 6 KOs) coped with compatriot Tom Farrell (21-6, 5 KOs).
Eubank immediately occupied the center of the ring, imposed a comfortable distance. Farrell snapped pretty good at times, but he was clearly uncomfortable working under pressure. And the underdog frankly did not keep up with the opponent – the bet on working as the second number did not work.

Farrell was not going to give up without a fight, he began to make attempts to seize the initiative. He had a few good hits, but almost every time after that, Eubank managed to win back the episode. The best moment of the underdog – in the 4th round – shocked the favorite, but did not manage to finish it off.

In the 5th round, Eubank seized the initiative, broke his opponent’s nose. Gradually, his advantage increased, and Farrell found it increasingly difficult to stay on his feet. But he managed.
