What a night of knockouts and stoppages tonight in boxing at Madison Square Garden, Xander Zayas impressed again here.
There was lots of stoppages tonight at the Garden in a great card filled with action throughout, highlighting many of the best emerging prospects in the sport and culminating with Keyshawn Davis winning the WBO lightweight world title in only his 13th fight as a professional.
On the undercard talented prospect Xander Zayas took out opponent Slawa Spomer in round 9 of their 10 round fight, here is some of the boxing world’s reaction to the win with his crippling jabs and body shots that got the stoppage:

22-year-old Xander Zayas went 21-0-13 KO tonight and impressed once again.
Great immediate future ahead, it would be good to see him matched with more difficult opposition later this year.
Kudos to both fighters tonight on a great fight.
Slawa Spomer was previously 20-0 before losing to Zayas tonight but Zayas has shown himself as a top level operator in the making tonight, exciting fights ahead surely for Puerto Rican Xander Zayas.
