Former IBF heavyweight champion Jai Opetaya (24-0, 19 KOs) spectacularly knocked out the previously undefeated Ellisa Zorro (17-1, 7 KOs) in the first round on Saturday night on the undercard of the boxing evening in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Opetaja landed a left hand that knocked Zorro out. The time the fight was stopped was 2:56. Opetaia was stripped of his world title earlier this week but looked every bit the champion in this fight.
