The scheduled for ten rounds contest ended after Round 3, following a series of heavy punches from the 23-year-old native of Toledo, Ohio in his superior performance against a native of San Francisco de Macoris, Dominican Republic.
“I’m the best heavyweight in the world,” Anderson said post-fight. “I don’t give a f*ck what nobody is talking about. You hear me? I made that look easy man because he helped me make it look easy. He wasn’t throwing punches for real. I kept my defense right. My jab was on point. It was an easy night.”
“I want those top names. I want those top contenders. Everybody who keeps calling people out, put my name on the list now. I’m not ducking. I’m not running. And you goin’ to catch this smoke.”
In Australia, the event aired live on Sunday, April 9.
