St. Clair Takes IBF Boxing Title From Baloyi

Australian Gairy “Superman” St. Clair hit the jackpot tonight in Kempton Park, South Africa by pulling out a unanimous decision victory over IBF/IBO Super Feather Champion Cassius Baloyi via scores of 116-112, 115-113, and 115-114. St. Clair, 38-3-2 (17), had not lost in nearly six years after dropping decisions to future world champions Diego Corrales, Leonard Dorin and Vivian Harris. Despite towering over St. Clair, the South African Baloyi, now 32-3 (17), was unable to keep the action on the outside and loses his longtime IBO crown and the IBF title won from Manuel Medina in May.
