Manyuchi – Dmitry Mikhaylenko

116-114,

118-110,

115-113

Zimbabwe’s Charles Manyuchi on Friday night beat Russia’s dreaded Dmitry Mikhaylenko via Unanimous Decision.
 
The fight was held in Ekateringburg.
 
Manyuchi, who is also the current WBC international champion, bashed Mikhaylenko at the DIVS arena for the WBC Silver title left vacant by Britain’s Amir Khan.
Khan takes on Canelo Alverez in Las Vegas tomorrow in the middleweight division.
This is not the first of his victories and the Zimbabwean Manyuchi’s last fight was on July 18 last year when he defended his title against Gianaluca Frezza in Italy.
Since then his career had been put

on hold after he fell out with his Zambian camp of Oriental Quarries Boxing Promotions (OQBP).
The Masvingo-raised boxer had hoped to find a local promoter to finance his mandatory title defence but it did not materialise.
In the end, it took the intervention of Zimbabwe Sports minister Makhosini Hlongwane, who successfully organised talks between the boxer and OQBP resulting in their reunion.
