On the eve of Grozny went great night of boxing, which has become the main event bout between regular champion WBA world heavyweight champion 37-year-old Uzbek Ruslan Chagaev (01/03/34, 21 KO), representing the Republican professional “Ahmad” sports club and wires the second defense of the title belonged to him, and hitherto unbeaten on pro-ring 36-year-old Australian contender Lucas Brown (24-0-0, 21 KO). Boxing in recent years under the auspices of the head of the Chechen Republic Ramzan Kadyrov Chagaev held the match in the same place where he was in July 2014 won the title of WBA regular champion, having won on points Puerto Rican American Fres Oquendo.
The favorite fight was considered Ruslan, whose chances of winning assessed in the proportion of 2.5 to 3.5 to 1. and, justifying this status, as well as the position of the ring master, Chagaev immediately began to press transatlantic challenger for his title. Brown is very much at first cautious, constantly backing away and trying to work hard jabs. It should be noted that Ruslan boxed with obvious overweight. In good, ten kilograms of it precisely would need to drive away. However, in the first half of the fight, this factor has virtually no effect on his condition. Uzbek first quietly took out the opponent’s punches in the head and on the body.
The second round also took place at the initiative of a ward full of Chechen sports club, which poddavlivat opponent several times completing their attacks punctuated by blows to the liver. The Aussie also seemed to act without any clear plan. Chagaev looked faster and more powerful and concentrated. In addition, Brown seems to have clearly feared opponent’s striking power. Only in the third segment of the battle for the first time Lucas showed signs of activity, sometimes I tried to put unexpected uppercuts, but not particularly invested in the strikes. Chagaev is still prim counterpart and attacked mostly twos. Several times rivals engage in short exchanges blows.
In the fourth trёhminutke bidder finally dared to go forward, apparently realizing that beat from distance more technical and bystrorukogo champion he did not succeed. Sometimes hitting Australian reached the goal, but formally ceded the initiative to Chagaev in the end of the round to catch the enemy counterattacks good few times. In the fifth round of the Lucas began to actively move the legs, sometimes even dancing around the ring. But this did not prevent Ruslana in one of the battle scenes so whack Australian that even a little bit of leg buckled. Brown still mostly tried to work technically, but Chagaev constantly “biting” his short, sharp blows of protection.
The sixth section of the fight was the most successful for the Uzbek. Chagaev aggressively layering one after another their attacks and 40 seconds left in the round after a left Brown knocked on the floor of the ring. It was a knockdown of moderate severity. The Aussie rose to his feet, but Ruslan immediately rushed to finish off. From its aggressive assaults, followed by numerous attacks, shaken bidder staggered, but managed to stay on his feet before the bell on the break. By this time Brown’s already being bled left eyebrow, and seemed to complete Chagaev his defeat was just a matter of one or two rounds.
Lucas Browne knocked Ruslan Chagaev
Apparently, it is believed himself Ruslan, for literally almost immediately paid. At the beginning of the next round had tried to develop Uzbek advantage, in order to finish what he did not succeed in the previous trёhminutke, ran into several recurring hard right uppercuts opponents. Once accurate and powerful blows to the jaw champion, Brown tried not to stop. However, it was backed Chagaev ago waited for the storm unit and only then he began to apply precise counterattacks. Now Brown is slightly staggered, but found the strength and do not forget to respond to the attacks of the opponent. In general, at times in the ring so the audience could see the beloved of the wheelhouse. For unknown reasons, this round was interrupted by gong to break ahead of time for more than 40 seconds.
Eighth trёhminutku opponents otboksirovali on a quiet wave. They only occasionally threw punches, but most of the time just marking time distance, waiting for the right moments and calling one another to attack. But those infrequent strikes, which they have thrown, flying mostly in the “milk”. Brown continued to be cautious in the ninth round. But Chagaev again began to emphasize defensive redoubts opponent. And for this rashness Uzbek boxer was soon punished. It would seem that this is Big Daddy (this is the ring-Australian nickname) had to be very active, as, no doubt, he outright lost the fight on points. And besides, it was evident that, measured acting from a distance, he did not beat a trained and skillful champion. But Brown somehow did not do it.
However, in the following, which has become the latest in the battle, came tenth trёhminutke happy for the Australian fighter and his team isolation. During the next offensive rush Chagaev, who seems obviously wanted to please keep it in the hall audience early victory, the Australian was able to catch the opponent seems to be not so powerful, but very precise rules counterattack in the jaw.
And this single strike, called in the boxing slang Lucky punch predetermined the outcome of the bout. Chagaev fell heavily back on the floor of the ring. Ruslan has found the strength to rise, although it was clear that it cost him a lot of effort. But, getting to his feet, and he continued to wander. As a result, a kite flown at him Brown began incessantly to strike as long as the referee is not wedged between the soldiers and did not do the go-ahead to terminate the bout.
Chagaev was pinned to the ropes subjected to ruthless “death” itself He did not respond to the opponent’s punches, even though continued and remain on their feet. Such a situation justifies the decision of the judge in the ring, decided to preserve the health of beaten boxer. Ruslan Although he protested, in his opinion, an early stoppage. However, nothing can be changed. Thus, a former MMA fighter Lucas Browne became the new WBA regular champion of the world heavyweight champion.
Even before the battle was known that the winner of this confrontation will be then obliged to come together in the ring with Fres Oquendo. And already won this battle is likely to meet with the WBA world super champion, who is now interrupted many years of the hegemony of the heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko Briton Tyson Fury. However, one can not exclude carrying out an immediate rematch between Chagaev and Brown, which may take place in Australia.
