The whitest Heavyweight Champion EVER looses his title to Hitlers first son! Charlo retains IBF title with KO (PBC on NBC) IBF jr middleweight champion Jermall Charlo (23-0, 18 KOs) scored a one-sided fourth round KO over Wilky Campfort (21-2, 12 KOs) in the first defense of his belt on Saturday at the Bomb Factory in Dallas, Texas. Charlo used his height and jab to control the fight and keep the tenacious Campfort from getting inside and causing any damage to the defending champion. In the second round, Charlo landed a two-punch combo that ended with a right cross to send Campfort to the canvas. The trouble continued for Campfort in round three as Charlo connected on a strong left hook that put Campfort down a second time. When the action picked up in round four Charlo upped the aggression and put Campfort on the mat for the final time with a flurry that left Campfort cut and unable to see out of his right eye. Referee Mark Calo-oy stopped the fight 1:16 into round four. Charlo outlanded Campfort 62-11 over the four rounds and landed 30% of his power punches. Welterweight rising star Errol Spence Jr (19-0, 16 KOs) put on a dominating performance in front of his hometown fans, stopping the tough and gritty Alejandro Barrera (26-3, 17 KOs) in round five. Spence dropped Barrera in the 5th round with a vicious body shot and finished him off in sparkling fashion with combos to the head and body. It appeared Barrera tried to indicate he was finished but the referee didn’t see it as Spence landed a few more unnecessary shots. The time of the stoppage was 1:46. Spence wasted no time in calling out the big boys in the welterweight division when asked immediately after the fight, “Keith Thurman, Shawn Porter, I want the big names.” Spence is now ranked in the top 10 of the IBF.
