It was Koki of their first encounter that survived a foul go to to the deck with Yun’s opening stable proper, resumed preventing and shortly landed a countering southpaw left, pulverizing the Korean within the first give-and-take spherical this June. It was such a stunning scene that the flattened loser Yun bought a cramp in his legs like Ingemar Johansson towards Floyd Patterson in 1961. The sturdy Korean, on this rematch, maintained the stress and outhustled the awkward champ, steadily piling up a degree in each spherical. The seventh noticed Yun speed up his assault to batter him from pillar to publish, prompting the champ’s nook dropping by the wayside. After the well-received stoppage the bloodied Tyson Koki stayed flat on the canvas for minutes.
The semi-windup noticed a shiny feather speedster Ha-Nok Shim (12-2, 5 KOs), 125.75, flooring Khusniddin Marimov (4-3-1, 2 KOs), 125, a Uzbekistani southpaw, within the first and tenth rounds, and purchased the vacant Korean nationwide featherweight belt by a unanimous resolution (97-91 98-90 twice) over ten hard-fought rounds. The WBO AP supervisor Leon Panoncillo was impressed with Shim’s great hand velocity and expertise on this eye-catching victory. Shim, with a brightening hand velocity, could also be value watching.
