In the main event of «Comeback Fight» boxing tournament in Kyiv Zaurbek Baysangurov (21-1, 16 KOs) won vacant WBA Inter-Continental light middleweight belt by impressive KO victory over Italian Cristian De Martinis (22-3, 10 КОs). Baysangurov started very aggressively chasing his opponent in the ring. De Martinis tried to establish his jab but failed – he simply had no time to do that. Zaur dropped him thrice within round 1: first, by body punch then by left hook and finally by a powerful right. The third knockdown appeared to be the last one – referee stopped the one-sided beating without a count. This impressive victory brought vacant WBA Inter-Continental light middleweight belt to Baysangurov.

In the co-event Maxim Bursak (18-0-1, 6 KOs) fought Alexander Sipos (19-7-2, 9 KOs) from Germany, the most serious opponent for Bursak so far. First rounds of the bout confirmed that Sipos is really a serious test for Kyiv fans’ favorite. Bursak threw a little bit more, however, Sipos’s defense was quite effective and what is more the German was counterpunching constantly. Bursak gradually increased his advantage in points but the bout was stopped unexpectedly in round 4 – Sipos twisted his ankle and was not able to continue. The accident left Bursak with a TKO win.
