Making his 1st title defense in Germany, Yoan Pablo Hernandez expected an easy defense since winning the belt by UD over Kelvin Davis.

It turned out to be anything but easy as Vitaliy Rusal knocked Yoan out with a vicious hook in the 3rd round.

Meanwhile in Italy, Herbie Hide made the 3rd defense of his WBC CW belt with a 1 punch right cross KO of a pretty durable Mirko Larghetti @ 1:11 of the 13th.

Early on it looked like Hide would blow the Italian out as he dropped him in both the 1st & 3rd but Mirko found his legs & made a fight of it until getting caught.

Cards were 115-111 twice & 115-112 with PL 300 (31%) to 228 (33%).

Hide's now 15-0, 14 KO's & was a CW champ able to defend his belt after the IBO, WBA & IBF champs all lost their belts within the past couple of weeks.
