Chvarkou, a 40-year-old Kazakh who fights out of Watford, was in real trouble and taking more punishment when referee Bernard Oyet stepped in to save him after 2:11 of the second. In his previous fight, Chvarkou had taken another heavyweight prospect, Leo Atang, the six-round distance. Alaniyan is now 2-0 (2 KOs) while his opponent is 6-34 (3 KOs).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Viktar Chvarkou was dropped at the bell to end the opening fight by big Irish heavyweight Adam Olaniyan,&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":1039830,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[4108],"tags":[1935,4496,4779,286486,286487,286485,72795,22319,79,16,15],"class_list":["post-1039829","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-boxing","tag-boxing","tag-boxing-news","tag-boxing-scene","tag-brad-pauls","tag-bradley-goldsmith","tag-edmondson-vs-arthur","tag-lewis-edmondson","tag-lyndon-arthur","tag-sports","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1039829","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1039829"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1039829\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1039830"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1039829"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1039829"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1039829"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
