Canada Crush: Mbilli Dominates Derevyanchenko in Super Middleweight Slugfest PhilBoxing.com Sun, 18 Aug 2024  Vianello Stops Makhmudov in Heavyweight Co-Feature QUEBEC CITY, Canada (Aug. 17, 2024) — Montreal’s super middleweight destroyer showed why he’s such a devastating force in the division. Christian “Solide” Mbilli (28-0, 23 KOs) defeated three-time world title challenger Sergiy “The Technician” Derevyanchenko (15-6, 10 KOs) via a dominant 10-round unanimous decision Saturday evening at Videotron Centre in Quebec City, Canada. Mbilli, who is ranked in the top three by all major sanctioning organizations, was relentless from the opening stanza, throwing bombs from all angles. Derevyanchenko tried to box from the outside but hurt his left biceps in the third round, forcing him to fight with just one hand. In the fifth, the 38-year-old Ukrainian fought back with consecutive rights, but Mbilli’s youth and power overwhelmed him as he struggled to end the fight on his feet. Mbilli maintained his unbeaten record with scores of 100-90, 99-91 and 98-92. Mbilli said, “I had some problems with my left hand, and I was not able to bring it up. I had to throw punches. It was difficult, but I had to do my best. “He’s a warrior. He was in a difficult position, but he fought back. I’m going to go back home and look at the fight again. “Right now, I’m ready for big fights. I want to be a world champion. I know that to be the best, I have to beat the best. I don’t want to say any names, but everybody knows who’s number one. I want the fight with number one.” Derevyanchenko said, "My legs were good. I only had one arm. I needed to move. When I stayed, he punched in combinations. “He’s a good boxer, a strong boxer. But if I had two hands, I think it would be another situation.” The Lion Tamer: Vianello Stops Makhmudov in Heavyweight Co-Feature Italian Olympian Guido Vianello (13-2-1, 11 KOs) registered the most important win of his career by upsetting Arslanbek Mahkmudov (19-2, 18 KOs) via eighth-round TKO victory in tonight’s co-feature. The two met in the World Series of Boxing nearly 10 years ago, with Vianello retiring in the fourth due to an ear injury. This time, things were different. From the opening stanza, Vianello quickly landed an array of right hands. The straight right, however, was pivotal, as it caused Makhmudov’s left eye to swell by the third round. Makhmudov tried to cut off the ring despite his impaired vision, but he was deducted a point in the sixth for punches behind the head. Vianello landed at will from the outside in the seventh. Makhmudov's glove touched the canvas at one point, although it wasn't ruled a knockdown. At the start of the eighth, the doctor deemed Makhmudov no longer fit to continue. Vianello said, "I am a contender now. I am ready for the world level, and I proved that tonight. “I thought I beat Efe Ajagba, and I came into this fight with a lot of confidence. I was in the best shape of my career, and that showed tonight. I dominated him and then knocked him out. “I just had to stay composed. There was a knockdown that wasn’t called, but I knew if I stuck to my strategy, I would get the knockout.” Lightweight: 20-year-old Southpaw phenom Abdullah Mason (15-0, 13 KOs) continues exceeding even the loftiest expectations. In his Canadian debut, Mason scored a second-round TKO win over Massachusetts veteran Mike Ohan Jr. (19-3, 9 KOs). In the opening stanza, Mason landed a perfectly timed left uppercut that sent Ohan to the canvas. In the following round, Ohan was floored again but with a straight left hand, which prompted his corner to stop the fight. Time of stoppage: 40 seconds. “Right now, it’s back to the gym. We’re going to take a little time off and be right back. I've got another fight coming up at the end of this year, probably sometime in November. We’re going to get that finalized soon," Mason said. “We executed the game plan how we wanted to. I set the initiative a little bit early because I saw that he wasn’t coming forward. I think he might’ve been surprised with how clean the shots were landing.” Super Middleweight: Cuban contender Osleys Iglesias (12-0, 11 KOs) made quick work of Sena Agbeko (28-4, 22 KOs), dispatching the Ghanaian veteran via TKO in the second round. Iglesias connected a right hook that dropped him in the round. Iglesias unleashed a flurry in the following round, forcing referee Steve St. Germain to halt the contest. Time of stoppage: 1:16. Junior Lightweight: Leila Beaudoin (12-1, 1 KO) inched closer towards a world title opportunity tonight, capturing the vacant WBO International title with a unanimous points verdict over Bolivia’s Lizbeth Crespo (15-8, 4 KOs). Beaudoin did not disappoint in her home province, countering the shorter Crespo with crisp punches from the outside and using her feet to control the ring. Scores: 100-90, 99-91 and 98-92. Light Heavyweight: 19-year-old standout Wilkens Mathieu (10-0, 6 KOs) bested Argentine vet Facundo Nicolas Galovar (15-12-2, 9 KOs) by six-round unanimous decision. Mathieu, who had won three straight by stoppage entering the evening, overcame Galovar’s craftiness by calmly connecting power shots around his guard. Scores: 60-54 3x. Middleweight: Jahi Tucker (12-1-1, 5 KOs) triumphed in his second appearance of 2024, vanquishing Santiago Fernandez (8-2-1, 4 KOs) via eight-round unanimous decision. He outboxed the Argentine at a distance, using his speed and rapid-fire left hooks to notch the easy victory. Scores: 80-72 3x. Junior Lightweight: Canadian rising star Thomas Chabot (11-0, 8 KOs) earned a unanimous eight-round points verdict over tough-as-nails Matias Ezequiel Guenemil (10-4-1, 5 KOs). Scores: 80-72 2x and 79-73 Lightweight: Dzmitry Asanau (8-0, 3 KOs) shut out Alexis Camejo (8-4-2, 1 KO) via eight-round unanimous decision. Scores: 80-72 3x.  |
