Las Vegas witnessed a one-sided victory for Callum Walsh in Zuffa Boxing's inaugural event at the Meta Apex. Walsh, an undefeated fighter, dominated Carlos Ocampo with his strategic lunging left hand and clean punches. The judges unanimously scored the bout 98-90, 98-90, and 97-91 in favor of Walsh. But here's where it gets controversial... The fight was not without its contentious moments. In the sixth round, a questionable knockdown was called against Walsh, which many might disagree with. And this is the part most people miss... Despite the knockdown, Walsh emerged victorious, showcasing his resilience and skill. The night before UFC 324, Walsh's performance highlighted his potential in the boxing world. With a record of 16-0 and 11 knockouts, Walsh has been praised by White for several years. His recent win over Fernando Vargas Jr. further solidified his reputation. However, some might argue that Ocampo, a seasoned fighter with a 38-4 record, was an underwhelming opponent. Nonetheless, Walsh's performance was impressive, and his rise in the boxing scene is undeniable. The launch of Zuffa Boxing, backed by TKO Group Holdings and Sela Sport, marks a significant entry into the boxing industry. With the support of Turki Alalshikh, the event attracted UFC fighters, boxers, and WWE Superstars. As Zuffa Boxing continues to make waves, the boxing world eagerly awaits to see what's next for this exciting new promotion.
