Boxing Upsets of The Week
By Robert Brizel, Head Real Combat Media Boxing Correspondent
Upset Number One: Andrzej Fonfara TKO 9 Julio Cesar Chavez Jr., Light Heavyweights
Fonfara decked Chavez in the ninth. Trainer Joe Goosen gave up Chavez in his corner on his stool. Fonfara rises to the BoxRec number three worldwide position. Chavez loses in the wrong weight class and needs to go back to middleweight. The crowd threw beer in disgust.
Upset Number Two: Kamil Szeremeta Win 10 Rafael Jackiewicz, Middleweights
Welterweight Jackiewicz, 38 years old and overweight, loses to a 9-0 Polish prospect.
Upset Number Three: Lucas Matthysse Win 12 Ruslan Provodnikov, Super Lightweights.Hard hitting Russian Provodnikov was thought to be an easy winner. Hard hitting Lucas Martin Matthysse of Argentina is a far more consistent technical boxer and outboxed him to win. Matthysse now ranked number by BoxRec among worldwide super lightweights.
Upset Number Four: Darnell Boone TKO 6 Phillip Jackson Benson, Light Heavyweights. Surprise! Boone, who knocked out Adonis Stevenson and lost a split decision to Sergei Kovalev, had enough power punches left in the tank to ruin the King’s Promotions main event at Valley Forge Casino, and expose the 15-1 Benson’s padded record. Bad matchup.
Upset Number Five: Pablo Sosa KO 4 Richard Baranyi, Light heavyweights
Unbeaten Hungarian light heavyweight prospect Baranyi was untested. Sosa’s last four opponents had a combined record of 54-6, and he lost lost only one eight round decision in those four bouts. Sosa drew over eight rounds with 25-3 Eduard Gutknecht in Germany.
Upset Number Six: Danny Aquino Win Split 8 Ryan Kielczewski, Featherweights
Mexican fighter Danny Aquino won 12 of his last 13, losing only a decision in a WBC-WBA regional super flyweight title bout to Nortberto Jimenez, who drew for the world flyweight title in his next bout. Aquino beat Jhovanny Collado in his previous bout, and Collado has a decision win over dangerous world ranked Rafael Vazquez. The 22-0 Kielczewski, AKA ‘The Polish Prince’, did the hard work but lacked the same sort of experience as Aquino.
Upset Number Seven: Ahmed El Mousaoui Win Split 12 Junior Witter, Welterweights
Surprise! 22-1-1 French and European Welterweight champion El Mousaoui can fight, and the fading 41 year old Junior Witter, with 53 bouts experience, gets outworked and beaten.
