Madrimov-Soro 2 ended in technical draw due to accidental head butt – World Boxing Association

An unfortunate accidental third round head clash that resulted in a cut on the face of Frenchman Michel Soro caused his bout with Israil Madrimov to end in a technical draw during Saturday’s evening at the O2 Arena in London, England.

The expected rematch between the Uzbek and the Welshman did not go as expected for the WBA super welterweight eliminator fight.

Madrimov, who came out with an aggressive style, was in front at all times and put his opponent against the ropes several times, dominated the fight. However, it was still very early in the fight.

After the fight, Madrimov’s record stands at 8 wins, no losses, 1 draw and 6 knockouts. Soro, on the other hand, now has a record of 35 wins, 3 losses, 2 draws and 24 knockouts.
