Bournemouth International Centre witnessed the homecoming Chris Billam-Smith (15-1, KO 11)and successfully defended his European and Commonwealth cruiserweight titles, scoring great points Isaac Chamberlain (14-1).
Billam-Smith last dropped a fight in April when he knocked out Tommy McCarthy in the eighth round of their rematch, while Chamberlain needed less than a round to stop former world title challenger Dilan Prasovic last December.
The pair unloaded in the first round, with Billam-Smith landing several piercing right hands. Backed by a raucous home crowd, the champion staggered Chamberlain in the second with a couple of ponderous punches, but Chamberlain responded by stunning Billam-Smith with a large right hand in a pulsating frame of action, but the home host hurt Chamberlain again slow in the round. Billam-Smith worked the body well in the third, but the next few rounds were demanding to come by, with both finding success.
It was an energy-sapping affair and it seemed as if Chamberlain was gaining the upper hand after the half, but in the eighth the fight turned again with Billam-Smith taking Chamberlain down and landing powerful shots and he clearly outmatched his opponent. The evidence of this was ninth and tenth places as Chamberlain ran out of energy and Billam-Smith’s engine was impressive as he controlled the championship distance perfectly, dominating the championship rounds as the event came to a thrilling close.
AWESOME FINALE! 🤯🤯

The Skydome in Coventry hosted the championship action, with the Boxxer card topping the promoted card, Sam Eggington won the vacant IBO super welterweight title after a wide points victory over the previously undefeated Pole, Przemysław Zysk.
Eggington (32-7, KO18) was unbeaten in three meetings, with his last victory being a thrilling split decision victory over Bilel Jkitou last September, while Zysk (18-1, KO6) earned his first ten-round win in a victory over Juan Ruiz in November 2021.
Eggington worked his opponent unnecessarily challenging, but the Midlander rarely gets into a tedious fight and always finds a way to get involved. After two great first rounds, Eggington settled into a rhythm and eventually won by two scores of 119-109 and in the third 117-111.

Mairis Briedis vs Jai Opetaia – Results and Fight Report

![Johnny is backing Opetaia to beat Briedis even better this weekend (Photo: D&L Events Boxing Instagram @dandlevent) Johnny is backing Opetaia to beat Briedis even better this weekend (Photo: D&L Events Boxing Instagram @dandlevent)](https://www.proboxing-fans.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/Mairis-Briedis-vs-Jai-Opetaia-Featured-640x419.jpg)
Mairis Briedis went to the Gold Coast Convention Center in Australia and found that a tardy start is high-priced, as Jai Opetaia became the fresh IBF cruiserweight champion with a bold points victory.
Briedis (28-2, KO20) became the consensus number one cruiserweight and a three-time world champion, after previously also holding the WBC and WBO titles. The Latvian won the IBF crown, along with the Muhammad Ali Trophy, in September 2020 with a majority nod against Yuniel Dorticos, and his only loss came via a hard-fought majority decision to Oleksandr Usyk in January 2018. Opetaia (22-0, KO17) passed his biggest test as IBF regional champion and failed to match his opponent’s elite level.
It was a steady opening round for both, with little action, but the champion was cut over the right eye. Opetaia was in good spirits and boxing well from range, landing an eye-catching combination in the second round, and the pair opened up in the third. Opetaia gained the upper hand in the exchanges, but it was Mairis Briedis who finished strongly, landing a couple of neat punches behind schedule in the round.
The fighter proved to be in inspired form, hurting Briedis in the fourth quarter with a volley of punches, and a massive uppercut badly damaged Mairis Briedis’ nose as he was battered, and further punishment was meted out in the fifth round.

Opetaia showed no signs of slowing down, but Briedis dug deep into a respectable seventh and eighth. Opetaia regained control in the ninth period when Briedis was forced to take more risks, but the champion uncorked a powerful right hand that rocked Opetaia in round ten and the home favourite did well to end the session. Jai Opetaia showed plenty of heart despite the pain of a suspected broken jaw and grimly held on for the final bell of this epic.
Two scores of 116-112 and a third of 115-113 confirmed that Jai Opetaia was the fresh world champion.

Conor Wallace (9-1, KO6) won the vacant IBF Pan Pacific featherlight heavyweight title and the WBA Oceana belt after winning a split decision over the world ranking Faris Chevalier (13-2, KO7). A 96-94 score for Chevalier was rightly overturned by two 98-92 verdicts for Wallace.
In a stormy case, Koen Mazoudier (10-2, KO4) became Ocean’s fresh WBA super welterweight title for the second time, winning by split decision Joel Camilleri (22-8-1, KO10)The two met last November, with Mazoudier winning an eight-round split decision and this time winning by scores of 99-92 and 98-92, while the third judge somehow scored it 96-95 in Camileri’s favor.
In the middleweight Isaac Hardman (13-1, KO11) flattened Beau Hartas (6-2, KO4) in the first round, winning a devastating knockout victory.

Derek Chisora breathed up-to-date life into his long and hard-fought career by winning the vacant WBA International Heavyweight title with a split decision victory over Kubrat Pulev at the O2 Arena in London.
Chisora was coming off three straight defeats, albeit in decent company, the last being a points loss to Joseph Parker in a rematch last December, while Pulev had twice failed to challenge for world titles in the intervening years of defeats to Wladimir Klitschko and Anthony Joshua.
The pair previously met in 2016 in a fight for the vacant European title, with Pulev winning a split decision in Germany, but this time it was the Zimbabwean-born Londoner who tasted victory.
Chisora (33-12, 23 KO) started the fight brilliantly, pressing as usual, fighting back with decisive moments in the crucial early rounds, but allowed the Bulgarian back into the fight after the halfway point as he began to tire.
There was plenty to play for in the championship rounds, and both men put it all on the line once they realized exactly what was at stake.

In a competition that was tough to score points, it all came down to the scorecards and, understandably, the verdict was split.
Pulev (29-3, 14 KO) had one score of 116-112, but was overtaken by the other judges, who scored it 116-112 and 116-114 in favour of Chisora.
Madrimov-Soro ends in header clash

Two scores of 100-90 and a third of 99-93 sealed the victory for the Irishman.
Heavyweight Fabio Wardley was due to face Kingsley Ibeh but the American was unable to get to the UK and Chris Healey stepped in, but the Stockport fighter proved to be little match for the win as Wardley (14-0, 13 KO) recorded a second-round stoppage.
Healey (9-10, 2 KO) went down in the first and again in the second before being saved.
