Here a brief tale of the fight, that can be fully watched.
The young Surinamese-that has become a top name in the last couple of years under the tutelage of his cousin K1 and MMA superstar Melvin Manhoef-seems to choose a slower pace,leaving the initiative to his opponent,breaking the endless advincing of Allazov with furious short combinations trademark of Mike’s gym.
The unexpected happens in the middle of the second round: the 2 boxers briefly tie in clinch nearby the ropes, when Manhoef gets free and connects a brutal left overhand hook that knocks Allazov to the canvas.
Allazov is down and he is visibly hurt.
After the 8 count from the ref, Manhoef literally starts a personal quest to destroy Allazov and goes beast mode for 1 full minute, throwing to Allazov everything he got in combinations of punches and knees.
Allazov is somehow able to survive the beating and Manhoef eventually gasses out , and the last 30 seconds of the round goes at a slow pace that helps the 2 to revive.
The last 3 rounds see Allazov always moving forward, showing anyway less lucidity and power hits than his usual fashion, with Manhoef working with powerful combos but maybe producing a bit too little to get any of the remaining rounds.
The judges award Chinzig Allazov of a majority decision, and he is so able to continue on his winning streak despite the big risk taken.
