inside two rounds on Saturday to add the WBO title to his WBC and IBF belts.
Beterbiev improves to 18-0 – all by knockout – and can now set his sights on a possible unification fight against Russia’s WBA champion Dmitry Bivol for the undisputed light heavyweight crown. Artur Beterbiev punches Joe Smith Jr. during his victory in the men’s lightweight title unification bout.“I prefer to unify. I want to be undisputed.”Smith, a Long Island native, was reportedly taken to hospital immediately after the bout and did not speak to media. He fell to 28-4 after the fourth defeat of his career.
But he did not have long to wait for the first legitimate knockdown of the contest, once again a clubbing overhand right forcing Smith to take a standing count at the end of the first.
