Heavyweight prospect Travis
Kauffman moved one step closer
to legitimate contention with a
comprehensive domination of
hard-punching trialhorse Chris
Koval Saturday night (May 22) in
his hometown of Reading, PA.
Kauffman, now 20-1 (16 KO),
stopped the 24-7 (18 KO) Koval
at 1:19 of the second round to
claim the vacant WBF
Intercontinental Heavyweight
title at the Sovereign Center.
The show was promoted by King’s
Promotions.
Kauffman, aged 24, advanced
towards the Youngstown, OH
native behind a solid jab in the
opening round that opened the
door for hard bodywork
downstairs.
The ambidextrous Kauffman
switched to a southpaw stance
towards the end of the first and
badly stunned Koval with a
four-punch combination to the
head. Koval walked back to his
corner on unsteady legs. |
