Marvel Stadium, Melbourne, Australia. Heavyweight (over 90.7 kg)
Hemi Ahio (19-0, 14 KOs) from New Zealand passed the “litmus test of the Australian heavyweight” of a native of Cameroon without any problems
Christiana Ndzie Tsoye (5-5-2, 4 KOs).
Ahio pounced on his opponent with lightning speed, offered him a high density of battle and a strong confrontation in infighting, even shook him with an uppercut. Tsoye waited out the opening onslaught of the prospect and began to answer. The underdog did not enter the 2nd round, citing a hand injury. It’s a shame, because potentially it was the best fight of the card.
Ahio RTD 1.
In the confrontation between two two-time contenders for the championship title, Australian Jason Moloney (24-2, 19 KOs) knocked out Filipino Aston Palikte (28-5-1, 23 KOs). The WBC Silver and WBO International bantamweight titles (up to 53.5 kg) were at stake.
The duel was competitive with mutual successful moments. But in the 3rd round, Moloney severely cut down Palikte, who clearly did not feel the distance and rushed with some kind of wild uppercut.
The Filipino got to his feet, but immediately fell under the distribution.
Moloney TKO 3.
Olympic medalist-2020 (Tokyo, Japan) local cruiserweight prospect (up to 90.7 kg)
David Naika (3-0, 2 KOs) passed a compatriot without a shine
Karima Maatallu (2-2, 2 KOs).
The prospect has a decent left hand (jabs and especially the hook around the block), but he often takes some completely irrational moves in the ring. Perhaps this is an attempt to play in public. It is necessary to conduct very carefully, absolutely raw.
Naika UD 5.
The fight in the limit of the second flyweight (up to 52.2 kg) between the ex-world champion Australian Andrew Moloney (24-2, 16 KOs) and the Nicaraguan Alexander Espinosa (21-4-2, 8 KOs) took place in the post-show.
Underdog-guest did not reach the 3rd round after one-sided starting three minutes.
Moloney RTD 2.
