Bryant Jennings returns to winning ways, wants shot at Joseph Parker
While British heavyweight Dillian Whyte used his under-card appearance and win on the Crawford-Indongo card as a showcase to call out WBC heavyweight ruler Deontay Wilder, Philadelphia’s Bryant Jennings used his under-card win, over Daniel Martz, as a way to call out reigning WBO champ Joseph Parker.
Gvozdyk, Whyte, Jennings, Stevenson and Alvarado win – Results
In a showcase fight, unbeaten the NABF and NABO light heavyweight champion Oleksandr Gvozdyk (14-0, 12 KOs) defeated the capable Craig Baker (17-2, 13 KOs) by a 6th round knockout on the undercard of the Terence Crawford vs. Julius Indongo card on Saturday night at the Pinnacle Bank Arena in Lincoln, Nebraska.
The Gvozdyk vs. Baker fight was televised on ESPN and ESPN Deportes. Gvozdyk, 30, put Baker down on the canvas with a right hand in round 6. The fight was stopped after Baker got back to his feet and took some punishing blows from Gvozdyk.
