MIAMI, 俄克拉何馬州. (七. 24, 2016) – On a night when undefeated heavyweight Trey Lippe Morrison won his television debut and 伊万“野獸”Baranchyk 和 伊万“的沃爾克”戈盧布 保持不敗, 輕重量級 Radivoje “Hot Rod” Kalajdzic regained his winning ways by registering a fifth-round knockout over previously unbeaten 彼得金特拉維斯 在一個主要事件 的ShoBox: 新一代 quadrupleheader生活 開演時間 星期五 從 Buffalo Run 賭場 在邁阿密, 俄克拉何馬州.

使他 的ShoBox debut and first start since suffering his lone defeat on a disputed decision to Marcus Browne, a motivated Kalajdzic (22-1, 15 科斯) 聖. 聖彼得堡, 佛羅里達州。, dropped Peterkin (16-1-1, 7 科斯), of the Brownsville section of Brooklyn, 紐約州, two times in the fifth before the fight was stopped at 1:32.

Other televised results: Baranchyk (12-0, 10 科斯), 布魯克林, 紐約州, took a 10-round unanimous decision over 王志民 (7-1, 3 科斯, 7-1 WSB), of Nutley, N.J. by way of Ningbo, 中國, 在 的ShoBox 共同特徵; immensely popular local favorite and son of the late former world heavyweight champion, Tommy “The Duke” Morrison, 重量級 Trey Lippe Morrison (12-0, 12 科斯) demolished previously unbeaten Ed Latimore (13-1, 7 科斯), 匹茲堡, 霸。, 一個進球 2:19, first-round TKO; and Ukrainian welterweight Golub (13-0, 11 科斯, 5-0 WSB), 布魯克林, registered a third-round knockout over 詹姆斯·史蒂文森(23-3, 16 科斯), 巴爾的摩, 馬里蘭州.

Kalajdzic overwhelmed Peterkin with consistent aggression, superior fighting spirit and better power. 他降落 45 他的力量，投籃的百分比, 含 60 percent in the final round. 更多, he led 37-7 身體所連接.

“The one-dimensional nature of Travis Peterkin cost him big time because he had no answer for Hot Rod’s right hand, and when he threw his own power shots they were ineffective,'' 的ShoBox 專家分析 史蒂夫Farhood 後來說. “He was exposed 今晚, and Kalajdzic rejuvenated his career after the loss with Marcus Browne.”

A 6-foot-2 native of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Kalajdzic dropped Peterkin the first time with a right-left combination and finished him with a right-left-right combination. Peterkin fell heavily in a neutral corner, prompting the referee to stop it.

“He was a little bit awkward so it took me a little bit to find my range but once I did and I got into a rhythm, I knew he wasn’t going to last,’’ Kalajdzic said. “We have been working on staying patient and finding that range and it showed 今晚.

“I wanted to make a statement in this fight and I did. I want the biggest names in the light heavyweight division, but before that I want Marcus Browne again. That is unfinished business for me. If he really thinks he won the fight then let’s do it again. We could fight next week. I’m ready.’’

Baranchyk, despite getting cut for the first time in his career (over his left eye in the fifth), 通過的成績奪得 100-90 兩次， 99-91. There were no knockdowns.

The rounds, particularly in the fight’s second half, were competitive. Both fighters landed a high percentage of power shots, 44 percent for Baranchyk, 41 percent for Zhimin, but the difference was that Baranchyk was busier, crisper and physically stronger.

Going more than four rounds for the first time, he answered questions about his late-round stamina and feels he is now ready to step up again.

“The 140-pound division is loaded with talent,’’ Baranchyk said. “There are tons of fighters I would love to fight, but there are two guys in particular I’d like to fight next: Maurice Hooker and Abel Ramos. Hooker is with Roc Nation and is above me in the ratings. He’s undefeated and this would be a great fight to prove I’m one of the best up-and-coming guys in this division. I’d love Ramos to fight Ramos too. We are both promoted by DBE and I have heard he called me out. He’s a come forward guy and those are the type of fights I like and that make for great TV.

“I love the fans here in Miami and I love fighting on 的ShoBox. This was my first time going 10 rounds and I feel great. Of course I would have liked to get the knockout because I always want to put on a spectacular show, but this was a great learning experience for me. He was an extremely tough opponent and I was surprised he was able to take so many big shots. We have been working on being patient and boxing and I was able to show that 今晚.''

Wang, who gave his best and never allowed Baranchyk to relax, 說, “I felt a little tight and I couldn’t get my punches off like I wanted to. He was a little too big for me.’’

In a performance that lit up the arena, Lippe Morrison dropped Latimore two times and was on the verge of knocking him down again when the referee stepped in and halted matters at 2:19. Morrison decked Latimore the first time with a right hand midway through the first. 過了一會兒, Latimore went down again from two rights and a left hook. After a series of shots, the referee stopped it.

“You know I have to watch the fight, but I think I did alright,’’ said Morrison after what was supposed to be the most dangerous assignment of his career. “I know I have to be patient and work behind my jab and just take the opening that I see – patiently. Being patient is something I’ve really been working on. I really felt my patience this time.

“I didn’t expect it to end this quick. I knew it might, but I didn’t plan on it. It felt good to drop a guy with my left hand. I never had the accuracy or quickness with the left that I do know. I now feel that I am equally adept with both hands. My left is like my right.

“To win a fight like this is definitely a relief. I was nervous about the fight, but not about fighting on TV. This was supposed to be my toughest fight on paper and I think I did well.

“I feel I may have opened some eyes, but that’s in large part to Freddie Roach. I feel I’m improving thanks to Freddie. I’m throwing quicker, snappier punches and the coordination between my footwork with my hands is way better. All that is because of Freddie.

“I wasn’t going for the KO but I’m glad it happened. I could not have done it without Freddie, 這是肯定的. I’ll be going back to California in a week and then right to the gym.”

The knockout was Lippe Morrison’s ninth in the first round. He also has two second-round knockouts and one fourth-round KO in a career that began in February 2014.

“We want to see more of Trey Lippe Morrison,''Farhood的說. “Let’s let Freddie Roach to do a little bit more of work with him. He had a tremendous pressure on him 今晚, but he did fantastically and he responded very well. He made a big step up in class 今晚 and couldn’t have produced a better result: a first-round knockout.”

After a competitive, fast-paced first round, Golub took over as Stevenson appeared to tire. A picturesque right hook to the chin dropped and staggered Stevenson, who still wobbly, got up by the count of five, but Golub continued his two-fisted assault, 交付了 20 unanswered punches and the referee stopped it.

“To me the guy that stole the show was Golub,“Farhood的說. “We keep thinking of him as a boxer but he showed tremendous power 今晚. He knocked out a very sturdy opponent in Stevenson and Baranchyk will benefit tremendously by going 10 發. He showed a lot by throwing as many punches as he did late in the fight against an opponent who simply wouldn’t be hurt.’’

“I could see from the first round that he was leaving himself wide open when he was coming in,’’ said Golub after his second 的ShoBox 開始. “I knew it was only a matter of time until I caught him with something really big and I would get him out of there. I’m happy with the performance but know I still have a lot to improve on. Our game plan was to be patient and box and let him come to us. I’m looking forward to getting back in there soon and continuing to climb the ranks of the welterweight division.’’
