Denis Lebedev vs Guillermo Jones

---

At age 41, using reach advantage, WBA World Cruiserweight champion Guillermo Jones landed long right hand leads out of range and busted up, cut up and closed the right eye of 'the other' WBA World Cruiserweight champion Denis Lebedev in the first round to seize the tempo of the bout immediately. Jones pummeled southpaw Lebedev with powerful right uppercuts which did major damage to Lebedev inside. The ring appeared very large, and Jones wasted to time with hand speed, foot movement, coming forward with pressure. Jones worked from the outside patiently, settling the issue of who the true WBA champion was, turning Lebedev's face into a cruel caricature of himself. Lebedev got beaten senselessly while trying to survive with one eye. Lebedev countered by throwing and landing a ton of shots which by punch volume scored.
