Adames sometimes chose Sheeraz and beat him to the majority. Sheeraz did not do close enough to take the belt from the title holder. Ultimately, one result 118-110 looked correct, but it was excluded by two unfathomable sums 115-114 for Sheerase and draw 114-114.

Daniel Dubois survived two knockdowns and a brutal early gunfight to stop Fabio Wardley in the eleventh round of the heavyweight war in Manchester.
The WBO heavyweight title clash at Co-op Live appeared to be slipping away from Dubois in the opening rounds as Wardley dropped the former world champion twice and threatened to overwhelm him with sheer aggression.
Instead, Dubois weathered the storm, gradually broke down Wardley and ultimately forced a dramatic stoppage after eleven brutal rounds.
Wardley entered the fight, defeating Dubois with the first punch of the fight, before both men traded powerful shots in a disordered opening session. Dubois looked vulnerable again in the third quarter when he fell to another injured knee during another violent exchange.
Despite the early setbacks, Dubois slowly began to regain control as Wardley’s effectiveness declined and the penalty began to accumulate.
The return of Daniel Dubois
By the fourth, the momentum was starting to come back. Dubois hurt Wardley with solid shots and forced perceptible reactions from the previously undefeated challenger.
In the fifth and sixth rounds, Dubois took complete control.
Wardley struggled to establish his jab and control the pace as Dubois marched forward, applying measured pressure and harder punches. In the middle rounds, Wardley looked exhausted and severely damaged, particularly around his nose and mouth.
Dubois sensed the fight was changing.
The seventh and eighth rounds became a test of survival for Wardley, who somehow continued to fight despite appearing close to being stopped several times.
What made the fight so dramatic was that Wardley never stopped trying to score the equalizer. Even after a few rounds, he was punching backwards when Dubois gave him space.
The danger continued into the ninth quarter when Dubois nearly shut down the event in another round of wild rallies, with full live coverage of the Wardley vs. Dubois results documenting the swinging dynamics of the card.

Fabio Wardley
Heading into the championship rounds, both heavyweights looked exhausted.
Wardley was visibly weakening, while Dubois himself seemed exhausted after so much effort. The difference, however, was that Dubois still had enough power to finish the case.
Dubois landed two immaculate punches in the eleventh, ending the fight and preventing Wardley from continuing after one of the most dramatic heavyweight battles seen in Britain this year.
Frank Warren later revealed that there was a rematch clause, leaving the door open for Wardley to seek revenge after the first defeat of his professional career.
The result gives Dubois another major heavyweight victory after recovering from an early crash, while Wardley pushed the former champion to the limit in a fight that could easily have resulted in a second chapter.
The WBN Wardley vs Dubois scorecard and round-by-round coverage followed as Dubois completely turned the fight around after early knockdowns.

Conor Benn defeated a clearly injured but stubborn Regis Prograis by unanimous decision after ten bruising rounds at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London.
The British welterweight earned the verdict on all three scorecards by identical margins of 98-92 after a fierce fight that left Benn with sedate injuries around both eyes and Prograis struggling with what appeared to be a leg injury.

Benn vs. Prograis
Despite the setback, Prograis showed his usual toughness, refusing to give up as the fight turned into a heated exchange at close range.
After the two clashed heads, Benn was injured around both eyes and the Briton struggled to bleed profusely as the fight escalated.

Prograis had moments of success in the middle rounds and even wobbled Benn in the seventh round, but the host continued to respond with sustained pressure and persistent bodywork.
Benn’s aggression and efficiency ultimately separated the two as Prograis continued to attack despite clearly not being 100 percent ready.
After ten demanding rounds, the judges unanimously sided with Benn, whose victory keeps him firmly in the welterweight division after another high-profile performance in London.
“The Destroyer” is now hopeful that Ryan Garcia will win the welterweight title after signing with Zuffa Boxing and leaving promoter Eddie Hearn under a cloud.
Hearn sat at ringside with no emotion, watching Benn win for the first time since their split.
