Aydin Destroys Bonsu
By Erik Schmidt: Undefeated welterweight contender Selcuk Aydin (19-0, 15 KO’s) added another easy knockout to his growing collection with a 9th round stoppage against Jackson Bonsu (30-3, 23 KO’s) tonight to capture the vacant EBU (European) welterweight title in Istanbul, Turkey.
Nicknamed the “Mini-Tyson,” even though he’s not that big of a puncher, Aydin landed some nice uppercuts and short right hands in the 5th round and seemed to be wearing Bonsu down. In the 6th, Aydin dropped Bonsu once again, this time with a big right hand to the head. Bonsu was letting Aydin crowd him and was paying for it by getting hit with some short punches.
In the 9th, Aydin knocked Bonsu with another big power shot to the head. At that point, referee Massimo Barrovecchio stepped in and stopped the bout. Bonsu fought the wrong kind of fight against Aydin, and made it too easy for him by letting the shorter Aydin get in close to land punches instead of keeping him on the outside by using movement and jabs.
Aydin showed good power, but nothing special compared to other big punchers in the welterweight division like Miguel Cotto, Antonio Margarito, Shane Mosley, Berto any many others. Aydin will have his hands full in a fight against Berto.
