Regis Prograis closed the showdown against Ivan Redkach with a brutal body shot in round six that forced the Ukrainian to take a knee. However, the win looked controversial as commentators doubted it as a groin shot. But the replays showed that it was a legal punch thrown by Prograis. Hence, he walked off with the last laugh.

Although Ivan Redkach had his minor moments in the ring, they didn’t turn out to be fruitful. Following several close shaves, he ultimately fell prey to Prograis’s prowess. Despite a lot of effort to regain his stance, the 35-year failed to make it to the count.

The body shot he received had perfect timing and was loaded with power. So, the damage was quite evident. While the referee hesitated to call off the contest immediately, there was no coming back from that punch. So Regis Prograis was rightfully handed the win.
