Russian power-puncher Arif Magomedov took another big step up the ladder in the middleweight ranks, when he won the Universal Boxing Organization™ Inter-Continental title on Saturday (November 16) at the Ivanhoe Country Club in Podolsk, Russia.

 
  
 

Magomedov took on the usually tough Thomas Mashali from Tanzania, the reigning WBF African Champion at Super Middleweight, and showed his great potential by scoring a decisive knockout at 1:07 of the second round.
 

After a first round where Magomedov seemed in control from the start, and worked well to both body and head, the 21-year-old from Checkhov finished matters impressively with a perfectly timed body-shot in round two.

 
 

Mashali tried to beat the count of referee Alexander Kalinkin, but was deemed too hurt to continue.

Magomedov, who only turned professional this past January and also holds the Russian national title, improved his record to 8-0 (6). Mashali (24) drops to 9-1-1 (5).
 

The fight was promoted by Dmitry Bogomolov.
