In a thrilling night at DBX 3, held at The Hangar in Regatta Harbour, Miami, Jairzinho Rozenstruik cemented his legacy as the first-ever Dirty Boxing heavyweight champion, delivering a brutal knockout to Rakim Cleveland.
The fight kicked off with a slow start, as both fighters felt each other out, throwing minimal punches. But excitement quickly escalated within the first minute as Rozenstruik unleashed a fierce flurry, leading to Cleveland hitting the canvas just 1:54 into the opening round.
Post-fight, Rozenstruik didn't hold back, stepping up to challenge former UFC heavyweight champ Andrei Arlovski. The anticipation is already building for what could be another explosive matchup at DBX 4, with a date to be announced soon.
In a shocking co-main event, fan-favorite Hector Lombard, expected to dominate the fight, was knocked out in a jaw-dropping 19 seconds by James Cannon, leaving the crowd in stunned silence.
Former UFC fighter Bryan Battle, competing just a week after his release from the UFC, made his comeback with authority. He faced Derik de Freitas, completely overpowering him and finishing the fight in under a minute with a TKO. Meanwhile, Jessica-Rose Clark secured a unanimous decision victory over Claudia Zamora, showcasing her striking skills.
