Fighting in his home-town, Villemandeur, France, Loic Tajan wasted no time in defeating Venezuelan Eliu Canario to become World Boxing Federation Interim Intercontinental Bantamweight champion on Saturday night, April 12.
It was quick and explosive, as the two boxers traded shots from the first bell. Both connected, but Tajan continuously hurt Canario while absorbing his opponents punches without much trouble.
After three knock-downs in the first round, it was all over as the referee had seen enough and waved the fight off.
The new WBF champion improved his professional record to 12-3 (7). Canario is now 17-6 (13).
