19-year-old Frenchman Lucas Migotti passed his biggest test to date on Saturday night, June 8, when he defeated Denis Madry from Poland for the vacant World Boxing Federation (WBF) Intercontinental Welterweight title.
In the main event of a show promoted by Boxing Club Montpellierain in Aimargues, France, Migotti was sharp from the start, and impressively stopped his tough opponent in the second round.
This was only Migotti´s second fight since suffering a shock defeat in February, so he did well to perform as he did against an opponent who had produced good results against tough opposition in recent fights.
Migotti took his professional record to 9-1 (5), and is certainly a young man to keep an eye out for in the future.
Madry (29), who had competed at a much higher level than Migotti prior to Saturday night, falls to a misleading 10-9-1 (5).
