Murojdon Akhmadaliev stuns Colombia’s Wilner Soto at Madison Square

Akhmadaliev chose to have fun with the moment, toying with his overmatched late replacement before in the fourth round of their super bantamweight heat.

Soto (22-7, 12KOs) was spared a knockdown call in round three when a body shot was ruled low. Akhamadaliev finished off the job in round four, the prodigious southpaw unloading with power shots until the bout was brought to a merciful halt.
