Otto Wallin is capitalising on his rise to prominence and took the biggest scalp of his career on Saturday night, overcoming Dominic Breazeale in Connecticut.
Featuring on the undercard of Adrien Broner’s comeback victory over Jovanie Santiago at the Mohegan Sun Casino, Wallin dominated proceedings against former two-time world title challenger, Breazeale, earning an unanimous decision win to follow up his victory over Travis Kauffman at the same venue in August.

Boxing really is a sport like no other. In December 2019, Teofimo Lopez blasted out Richard Commey in two rounds to claim IBF Lightweight gold at Madison Square Garden, inflicting a first knockout defeat of his career.
Almost 14 months later, Lopez now unified WBA ‘Super’, WBO, IBF and WBC Franchise champion was vocal in his support for his former foe ringside at the MGM Grand Conference Center, Las Vegas on Saturday night and after Commey blew away Jackson Marinez in six rounds, the Brooklynite was visibly elated.
Who is next for former British champion Richard Riakporhe?
Riakporhe has not fought since December 2019
Richard Riakporhe will hope to fulfill his potential in what could be a career-defining year.
For someone who first joined a Boxing gym at 19-years-old and only turned professional four years ago, Riakporhe (11-0, 8 KOs) has made impressive progress and has put himself within touching distance of a maiden world title shot.
The undefeated Londoner headlined his first show, claiming the British Cruiserweight crown with a points win over Jack Massey in December 2019, but his career has stalled since, primarily as a result of a hand injury which has hampered his plans.
