Regis Prograis vs. Kiryl Relikh

Main Event Time: The Hunt for the Ali Trophy:

WBC Diamond Champion Regis Prograis wearing red trunks with black trim and Kiryl Relikh wearing yellow and black trunks.

Here we go WBSS super-lightweight semi-final  is here.

Round 1. Interesting first round. Relikh being aggressive and coming forward for most of the round. Prograis catches Relikh with a left hook to the body, Relikh gets hurt and walks away leaving himself unprotected and Prograis goes after him and gets a knockdown.

Round 2. Very good fight, Prograis hurts Relikh again towards the end of the round. Relikh is cut on his nose but catches Prograis with a big punch after the bell. This fight isn’t going to last long – WOW.

Round 3. Relikh is badly cut on his nose and this has fight of the year written all over it. What a fight, to tigers going at it. Prograis trying to hit the body and Relikh knows he can hurt Prograis.

Round 4. Prograis ready, talented and fast but Relikh game to fight. Relikh is going to have to take more chances against the fast defensive Prograis.

Round 5. Prograis in control of the fight and I’m sure that WBSS promoters are happy because Relikh’s nose is in bad shape and will take sometime to heal before he can fight again.

Round 6. Relikh eats a few punches and the referee surprisingly stops the fight a bit early. The corner might have stopped the fight as there  was concern in Relikh’s corner in between rounds. Relikh was still in the fight and definitely had a punchers chance to stop Prograis.

Good exciting fight, congratulations to both fighters.

Congratulations Regis Prograis -Up next will be the tournament final Championship which is targeted for Fall 2019.  Regis Prograis will battle the winner of Josh Taylor / Ivan Baranchyk Fight which takes place on May 18th in Glasgow, England
