Paddy Donovan secured another world title shot by winning his IBF welterweight title final eliminator by majority decision over Karen Chukhadzhian on Friday in Mannheim, Germany.

Donovan (15-2, 11 KO) defeated Chukhadzhian (26-4, 14 KO) in the sixth and eighth rounds and emerged victorious by the score of 115-113, 114-112, surpassing the drawn score of 113-113.

Donovan, after two defeats in a row to Lewis Crocker, decided to box the back of the foot from the beginning and fired several correct body shots in the first round.

Chukhadzhian is undefeated in two matches since his second defeat Jaron Ennis– he responded with several difficult shots in the second, and the left hand caught Donovan’s attention.

“The Real Deal” pushed the Ukrainian away with his left hand at the end of the third period, but the 30-year-old responded in the fourth round and continued to march forward, and at the end of the round with his right hand, which was his best achievement.

Donovan found his breakthrough in the sixth round, countering his opponent with a sturdy left hand.

Chukhadzhian stood up, looking more frustrated than hurt.

The Ukrainian fell again and scored eight, this time with a right hand, although he protested that it was due to a push.

The pair continued their wild ninth rally, with the Irishman landing a precise uppercut that earned Chukhadzhian’s approval.

Chukhadzhian traded with Donovan at close quarters over the final three rounds, with both men landing some solid combinations.

With Donovan fading and forced to fight back, the Ukrainian put his best foot forward in a compelling final round.

The first scorecard was 115-113 in Donovan’s favor and was met with a scorecard of 113-113.

The third score of 114-112 gave the Irishman the victory to leave Germany and sparked wild celebrations in the ring, including from the promoter Eddie Hearn.

Donovan, who was defeated by Crocker in September, called the Belfast fighter for a post-fight trilogy.

Crocker makes his first title defense against Liam Paro on June 24 in Australia.

Webb with Odiase KO

Emanuel Odiase won the vacant IBF European heavyweight title with a second-round knockout of Nick Webb.

After a close first round, Odiase (11-0, 9 KO) hit Webb (19-4, 15 KO), and the attack with two punches knocked him to the deck, and the Briton failed to defeat the count.

Kadiru dismisses Gashi

In a tender heavyweight fight, Peter Kadiru defeated veteran Senad Gashi (34-5, 32 KO).

The scores of 96-94, 98-92 and 97-93 ensured the victory for Kadir (23-1, 13 KO).

Undercard remaining

Cameroonian heavyweight Nelvie Tiafack (4-0, 3 KO) remained undefeated, going the distance for the first time in his career with a unanimous decision over Mateus Munhoz Da Penha (7-3-2, 3 KO).

Elsewhere in the heavyweight division, Viktor Jurk (14-0, 12 KO) knocked out Edwin Castillo (13-3, 8 KO) in the first few seconds of the fight.

Alexander Okafor (4-0, 2 KO) defeated Elija Uelkueseven (8-1, 6 KO) and thanks to a split decision won the fight for the title of the German BDB cruiserweight champion.

Prospective cruiserweight Edmon Avagyan (1-0, 1 KO) made a successful professional debut, defeating Patrik Fiala (13-8-2, 8 KO) in the third round.

The IBF European lightweight title remained in the hands of Devrim Goekduman (13-0-1, 8 KO), although his fight with Franklyn Dwomoh (9-0-1, 2 KO) ended in a split draw after a pulsating 10 rounds.

Dave Allen weighed slightly more than Filip Hrgovic ahead of Saturday’s heavyweight clash in Doncaster.

Allen will face Hrgovic at the Eco-Power Stadium in Doncaster, live on DAZN.

The popular Doncaster competitor weighed 248.8lb, four ounces more than his rival who weighed 248.4lb.

After their last face-to-face meeting, the pair rushed to the cameras, with both men trying to face each other to gain one last psychological advantage.

Allen weighed more than 10 pounds less than the 259.1 pounds he faced defeat by Arslanbek Makhmnudov in October.

The 34-year-old is clearly the underdog in the bookmakers’ eyes, but he has promised to cause a solemn stir.

“He’s a great fighter, but I’m not afraid of him,” he said.

“I didn’t care about Filip Hrgovic.

“On paper I shouldn’t even be in the ring with him, but I feel like it’s going to be a special night at Donny’s tomorrow.

“I will experience one of the biggest disappointments in the history of British boxing.”

Hrgovic, who is being lined up for summer clash with Moses Itauma had he emerged victorious, he would have tipped the scales by over seven pounds more than he weighed in the wake of his August win over David Adeleye.

The Croatian, two wins since his only professional loss to Daniel Dubois, said Allen’s fans would not facilitate him in his fight for the IBF Intercontinental title.

“We’ll see tomorrow,” said the 33-year-old.

“Let’s get down to business.

“I’ve been training tough. I can’t wait.

“It’s just me and him in the ring. It won’t facilitate him [the home support]”
