Nicholas Walters (24-0, 20 KOs) retains title and remains undefeated after he knockout the former 112-pound king Vic Darchinyan (39-7-1, 28 KOs) in Round 5. Early in Round 2 Walters caught Darchinyan with a short right upper cut that knocks down the challenger.
Prior to the second round knockdown, Vic Darchinyan (39-7-1, 28 KO's 28) was taunting Walters to open up, as Walters cover up high with both gloves. But then Darchinyan falls on a trap: a hard uppercut that caught him square up! Darchinyan's legs went up in the air with that uppercut.
The start of an end came in Round 5; Walters lands a left hook that wobble Darchinyan. Walters followed up with another left hook to the body and head that sends Darchinyan to the floor again! Darchinyan bit the mandatory eight count but still too shaky.
Nicholas Walters won (24-0, 20 KO's) sensing his man is ready for picking, rushes towards Darchinyan and finished the job. Darchinyan stayed down for a couple of minutes and help rushed in the ring.
I think that was it for the terrific career of Darchinyan who has had excellent run in the lighter division---especially the 112-pound weight class.

Gradovich caught in the chin with his feet so squared up to sustain the impact. But the knockdown didn’t have enough damage.
