BANGKOK, Thailand — In the blink of an eye, unbeaten Italian Alessio Bisutti (9-0, 8 KOs) blasted 110 kilos Türkiye warrior Gurkan "Storm" Karadag (7-1, 7 KOs) to conquer the vacant UBO Continental Heavyweight at the Lumpinee Boxing Stadium in Bangkok, Kingdom of Thailand.
It took Bisutti one quick, well-placed left hook to Karadag's temple to short-circuit the 24-year-old Turkish, rocking him down to the mat, landing arse first.
The bearded Karadag, made it on his feet before the referee's count.
However, he made so on unsteady legs, looking unable and unwilling to trade fire with the big, calvo fighter born in the historic northern Italian city of Veneto, one of the most iconic places in the world.
Billed as "FCC 7 Double Impact 2," the show was promoted by FCC (Fight Club Championship), in association with Highland Boxing.
A full video of the entertaining event can be found on the YouTube Channel of Fight Club Championship.
Bisutti's next rumble will be his first title defense scheduled for November in Pattaya Beach, Thailand.
