Former world champion Badou Jack looked prominent tonight. Despite going up against an undefeated boxer in Dervin Colina, ‘The Ripper’, who didn’t hesitate to pull off his best shots, ultimately claimed the win via TKO.

The 10-round light heavyweight contest could have gone to the distance as most of the fans expected that. However, Jack appeared to have unique plans on his mind. The American hard-hitter came up aggressively from the very beginning.

‘The Ripper’ maintained the distance with Colina and landed his shots from the right place. He scored two valuable knockdowns to end the fight. Hence, it was all about Badou Jack scoring his twenty-fourth professional win in the undercard of Mayweather vs Paul.
