Dillian Whyte finished Ian Lewison in an impressive display
On October 7, 2016, Dillian Whyte went head-to-head with Ian Lewison for the British heavyweight title at the OVO Hydro in Glasgow, Scotland, UK.
Going into the bout, his opponent was considered a very dangerous puncher.
In an interview with British Boxers in 2013, he said: “If you ask anyone who has ever fought me, whether I’m fit or not, they will tell you that I’m the hardest puncher they’ve been in with.”
And he showed flashes of that power on the night, landing heavy shots on his opponent from the first bell.
However, as the rounds rolled on, Whyte began to assert his dominance, connecting with punishing blows to the midsection.
By the seventh, Lewison’s eye had badly swollen, and at the end of the tenth, his corner decided to pull him out.
