A Worldwide Web replay of Saturday’s excellent showdown between undefeated Adrian Diaconu and Chris Henry will be available all this week at DonKingTV.com and can be accessed with a simple click.
Diaconu won a close, unanimous decision to become the interim World Boxing Council light heavyweight champion in a match staged at the Sala Polivalenta in Bucharest, Romania.
Diaconu, 25-0 (15), born in Romania and now fighting out of Montreal, had been the WBC mandatory challenger at the 175-pound weight limit and was to have faced WBC champion Chad Dawson during a Don King-promoted fight card on Sept. 29 at Arco Arena in Sacramento, CA.
Diaconu was forced to bow out two weeks prior to that contest after suffering a hand injury that included bone contusions and soft tissue damage.
