Aussie Heavyweight Teremoana Knocks Out Savage in Two Rounds
Teremoana Teremoana extended his knockout streak to 12 and said he expects a Fury-Joshua undercard spot, while Eddie Hearn wants tougher opposition first.
- On Wednesday, Teremoana Teremoana defeated DeAndre Savage by knockout in Queensland, Australia, securing his 12th consecutive professional victory without fighting beyond round two.
- The 28-year-old Teremoana, trained by former WBC super-welterweight world champion Tony Harrison, faced his most challenging opponent yet in 35-year-old Savage, who had also compiled 11 professional victories.
- After surviving a one-sided opening round, Savage was dropped in the second round when Teremoana landed straight right-hands to the temple; referee Phil Austin finished the 10-count.
- In his post-fight interview, Teremoana announced plans to appear on the Fury-Joshua undercard, which promoter Eddie Hearn confirmed while stressing the need for stiffer opposition.
- Hearn aims to move the Australian to 15 or 16 wins before pursuing a world title, seeking opponents capable of forcing him beyond the opening rounds where he has dominated.
