Artem Sergeevich Suslenkov vs. Criștian Ciocan & Dmitry Kudryashov vs. Fernando Rodrigues Jr. RBR

Suslenkov doubling his jab before walloping down with a right hand, backing Ciocan around the ring.

50-45

 

Hammer giving Chauncy Welliver vibes.

 

60-54

Two rounds left for the Romanian-German to pull off a miracle KO...but the last time he stopped anybody with a positive record, it was Saul Farah, pre-pandemic. The last time he stopped anybody ranked was the previously unbeaten Michael Wallisch a year before that, in December of 2018.

 

Sussy boy throwing the kitchen sink at him but Ciocan - despite his face being marked up and his gas tank running on almost E for several rounds - isn't going anywhere.

 

80-72 Suslenkov

The commentators each say "Bravo" - presumably to Ciocan for making it the distance. Agreed, but he should retire. He's never regaining his world-rated contender form, and pushing 40 and stuck at upwards of 300lbs, he's just going to get beaten up moving forward and risk brain damage. It'd almost be a mercy for him to have a worse chin, in these situations.

 

Official cards:

...in Russian x3 but we can likely assume shutout in triplicate

UD for Suslenkov

 

...adding @Aburius (attn: @CST80)

 

Not super familiar with either of the guys coming up. I've heard of Gleison Tibau, at least...think he was in UFC for a long time. He is 39-19 in pro MMA. "The Crushin' Russian" Vasilevsky is 36-9 in that sport but in pro boxing is 1-0 (and Tibau is making his debut here).

 

He's the main event, next.
