Australia’s Justis Huni has claimed an impressive victory via unanimous decision (100-90, 98-92 x 2) in his overseas boxing debut on Sunday (AEDT).
The 24-year-old was considered the next big thing in Australian heavyweight boxing after he defeated Paul Gallen in 2021, but he has struggled to get in the ring since then.In his first fight since beating Kiki Leutele a year ago, Huni took on experienced heavyweight Andrew Tabiti in Mexico — a tough test in just his eighth professional fight.
Huni came out firing as he traded blows with Tabiti in the early stages of an entertaining heavyweight bout. But the Aussie quickly took the upper hand in early and middle rounds, pinning Tabiti against the ropes and pummelling his opponent with heavy body shots and strong combinations. Active from the first round, Huni showed impressive stamina to maintain the high tempo throughout the full 10 rounds and absorbed a few strong blows from Tabiti, who rallied in the eighth round.Australiaâs No.1 heavyweight scores a unanimous points win against Andrew Tabiti in his first overseas fight to claim the vacant WBA international title.
This victory over Tabiti was just his third fight after the win over Gallen following victories against Joe Goodall and Leutele.Boxing and UFC legends combined to produce some of the most absurd group photos you’re ever likely to see in Saudi Arabia.Fans simply couldn’t believe what it was seeing as MMA fighter Francis Ngannou floored the heavyweight boxing champion of the world.CONTENT WARNING: Tyson Fury seems unbreakable.
