MASTERNAK BEATS CORBIN

On the undercard of Braekhus vs St John event in Denmark's Fredrikshavn, Polish cruiserweight Mateusz Masternak, 30-0, took a long time to get untracked in his WBC Int´l Silver title contest against Trinidad´s Sean Corbin, 15-4, but finally put it together for a stoppage at 1:01 into the ninth. Corbin was down in the eighth as well and both eyes were almost swollen shut at the time of the stoppage.

Corbin was however off to a good start as Masternak looked unable to get anything on what on paper appeared to be a relatively easy opponent. The judges had it 79-72 twice and 80-71 for the Pole after eight.
