Maybe many will be scratching their heads why this is a PPV event, 2 older veterans in the main event, Mundine 37 and McKart 41. This is the first trip to the U.S.A for the Australian star Anthony “The Man” Mundine, who has been publically speaking out he has all the tools to take out Floyd Mayweather Jr. But tonight he must prove himself against Bronco McKart as the vacant IBF North American middleweight title will be on the line. Dmitry Sukhotsky and Cornelius White will box for 12 rounds for the vacant IBF International light heavyweight title.

 

Ahror Muralimov 12 (KO 11) -0 -0 vs. Andrae Carthron 6 (KO 1) -7 (KO 2) -2 -1 NC

 

8 rounds in the heavyweight division.

 

Muralimov has recently changed his name to Acha Muhammad Ali. No matter what he calls himself he been punishing Carthron, but has been landing power shots to the body of the first 2 rounds. Ali who is the most feared young heavyweights, his power is show tonight. He can’t but his punches together he continually land with the a powerful left uppercut, but Andrae Carthron has the better boxing going to the body every time he gets Ali into a corner. Half through Ali looks a bit gassed as those power punches are taking a toll. Ali has power in both hands as he’s shown with ever uppercut he throws. Carthron has held his own till now rocking Ali a couple of times through the rounds. It appears either boxer is concern about display their skills its clear both want the KO. Last round both boxers are worn down as they slowly come to the middle of the ring. Single shot only being thrown, pure power being thrown back and forth by Ali and Carthron. It’s turned to be a decent heavyweight slug fest. Both have left it all in the ring, but it will go to the judges. Acha Muhammad Ali has been declared the winner by Unanimous Decision. Now known as Acha Muhammad Ali improves to 13 (KO 11) -0 -0 and Andrae Carthron falls to 6 (KO 1) -8 (KO 2) -2 -1 NC. Just a good old fashion slug fest no real skill displayed, the bout earns 2 out of 5 stars.

 

Dmitry Sukhotsky 18 (KO 13) -1 -0 vs. Cornelius White 19 (KO 16) -1 (KO 1) -0

 

12 rounds in the light heavyweight division, for the vacant IBF International light heavyweight title.

 

Dmitry Sukhotsky enters the ring in tip top shape and Cornelius “Da Beast” White is looking to step it up, and make a name for himself.

 

Both come out swinging, both have showed up to box. Both looking to establish the jab, Sukhotsky having the shorter reach has been trying to work his way inside. Through the first 3 rounds Cornelius White has put his punches together; Sukhotsky has turn up the heat with his power shots. Both neither boxers has been able to put any 3 or 4 punch combinations together. Very even bout through the first 6 rounds, White as been able to double up on the jab and catch Sukhotsky with a rare counter punch. Sukhotsky has stuck to his game plan working inside backing up with White with right hands repeatedly. Both still look fresh, but Sukhotsky was some swelling under his right eye and a tickle of blood from his mouth from the left jabs of White. Sukhotsky has been more aggressive boxer, all Cornelius White as been able to do is land that left jab effectively occasionally putting the right had behind it. Round 9 the referee Russell Mora has called the ringside Doctor to look at the cut on right eye of Sukhotsky with a minute left, the Doctor has determined the fight can continue. It has been announced the cut was caused by an accidental head butt. Entering the championship rounds it appears Cornelius White has settled in and appears to have taken control, putting together his punches going upstairs and downstairs. Sukhotsky maybe behind with a now swollen closed right eye but he continues to push forward with determination. In a great battle over the last 5 rounds Cornelius White did enough to score a Unanimous Decision victory to capture the IBF International light heavyweight title and it’s speculated he’ll get to fight the winner of Tavoris Cloud and Jean Pascal on August 11th 2012 in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Cornelius White ups his record to 20 (KO 16) -1 (KO 1) -0 and Dmitry Sukhotsky falls to 18 (KO 13) -2 -0. Although the action was nonstop, neither boxer was really able to break lose. The bout earns 3 out of 5 stars.

Dmitry Sukhotsky was Nathan Cleverlys mandatory, so hes blown his title shot.

Probably, but as it's the WBO, don't bet on it. And as Cleverly's a Warren fighter with very little apparent ambition, especially don't count on it.

 

I thought White looked rather promising - I'd like to see his jab and his reasonable power in against Cleverly, would be a good scrap.

I've bolded the 2 that I think would actually be 50-50 type fights, though I wouldn't mind if he fought Braehmer or Sukhostky (even though he was made to look awful against White). Someone needs to explain what Campillo did to piss them off...
