Unbeaten Colombian 175-pounder Eleider Alvarez (24-0, 12 KO's) DID THE UNEXPECTED.👍👍 Eleider took the very best shots from "The Krusher" Sergey Kovalev (32-3-1, 28 KO's) BUT in the 7th round, landed ONE HUGE RIGHT HAND that damaged "The Krusher" rocking him down to the blue canvas tonight (Aug 4) in Atlantic City, NJ..!!!.✨🥊🥊✨
The fearsome Russian stood up in unsteady legs just to take more vicious blows from the relentless Colombian warrior. 👊👊 THREE TIMES "The Krusher" was forced down to the floor till the end came at 2:45 in the 7th round, for an exciting TKO win.. and the 34 year-old 🇨🇴️ Colombian living in Montreal 🇨🇦️ Canada becomes the new WBO Light Heavyweight Champion of the World 👍👍 and what a treat!!!
Felicitaciones 🇨🇴️ Colombia!!!🇨🇴️
