Middleweight Immanuwel Aleem scored the biggest win his of career with an upset, sixth round technical knockout over the heavily-favored Ievegen Khytrov on Saturday night at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, NY. Aleem (17-0-1, 10 KO’s) nearly knocked Khytrov out in the first round, knocked him down in the third and again in the sixth before referee Eddie Claudio stepped in with Khytrov badly beaten and bloodied along the ropes. The fight was stopped at the 1:20, giving Aleem the WBC Silver middleweight title.

“Today was the most terrible day of my life,I hope it's never happened again! And thanks so much for support! I'll be back...” texted Khytrov from NYU Lutheran Medical Center.
