TOLPPOLA SCORES A KO
Juho Tolppola, 23, who had moved back to the super-lightweight division, demonstrated that his nickname "TNT" comes for a reason. In the fourth round TNT landed with a right hook and his Polish opponent Adam Zadworny fell asleep in dramatic fashion. The slim and seemingly well-trained Pole was gutsy and tried his best, but he was no match for Tolppola. Tolppola, who has learned his trade the hard way from his big bouts in outlands looked very determined and confident.
It was evident already in the first round that Tolppola was not going to spend full six rounds in the ring. Halfway in the round Tolppola landed with a left hook and poured punches on Zadworny who was trapped to the ropes. In the second round Tolppola’s dominance continued and his left hook to the body clearly hurt the Pole, who survived by clinching. The active Pole might have taken the third round as Tolppola’s control slipped slightly.
Early in the fourth round as Zadworny attacked, Tolppola landed a counter right hook and the Pole dropped down like a rock. The audience applauded Zadworny as he finally was able to get up with the help of his cornermen. The knockout victory was the 7th of Tolppola’s career, together he has now twelve victories against two losses.
