Rio de Janeiro Olympic heavyweight medalists Filip Hrgovic (13-0, 11 KOs) and Tony Ioka (11-0, 9 KOs) picked up early wins this weekend in their next pro fights.

Hrgovic won easily the IBF International belt in Klagenfurt, Austria, when Marko Radonic (22-1, 22 KOs) did not make it to the fourth round. Radonic was on the floor four times in the second round and once more in the third.

Yoke needed more time to win, and he ended his rivalry with Peter Milas (15-1, 11 KOs) in the seventh round, thus defending his EBU-EU title.
