Fight Report

Joe Smith Jr realised his dream when he took a close but deserved 12 round majority decision win over  Maxim Vlasov to win the vacant WBO World Light-heavyweight Title. 

Vlasov can justifiably feel that he did enough to take the win but in reality, it was Smith Jr's late-round rally that sneaked the win for the 31-year-old from Long Island, New York, although a rematch would settle matters best.

Scores: Gerald Ritter 115-112 | Pat Russell 115-113 | David Sutherland 114-114.
