Ben Whittaker wanted lower than a spherical to ship Benjamin Gavazi packing of their extremely anticipated DAZN Boxing headliner on Saturday evening.
Close to the midway level of the opening spherical, Whitaker caught Gavazi with a tough proper hand earlier than connecting with a physique shot that had Gavazi reeling early. Already smelling blood within the water, Whittaker unleashed a barrage of rights and lefts, together with a booming overhand proper that catches Gavazi clear and sends him crashing to the canvas.
Gavazi solutions the referee’s rely with a minute to go within the first, however he’ll by no means make it to the second stanza after getting dropped by a devastating straight-left-right-hook combo that put him down for the rely.


Official Outcome: Ben Whittaker def. Benjamin Gavazi by way of KO at 2:15 of Spherical 1 to win the WBC Silver mild heavyweight championship.
