Knight gets his revenge
Knight was on the offensive from the get-go, using his reach advantage to keep Lobov away while stinging him with hard jabs. Lobov tried teeing off on Knight’s body but couldn’t do much damage. Knight landed the first knock down of the fight.
In the third and fourth rounds of the fight, Lobov mounted a comeback, but he had already taken too much punishment from Knight in the previous rounds and his face started bleeding heavily.
Less than a minute inside round five, Knight connected with a hard shot on Lobov’s face, making him go down and prompting the referee to check on the Russian. It was clear that Lobov could not continue any further and Knight got the win via KO in the fifth round.
In the post fight interview, Knight said that he is interested in a trilogy fight against Lobov sometime in the future.
