At the Sportpark Arena in Ljubljana, Slovenia, Jan Zaveck (31-1, 18KOs) retained the IBF welterweight title with a fifth round knockout of overmatched American challenger Paul Delgado (25-10, 4KOs). Delgado went down twice in the second round. It was the third defense of the title for Zaveck, who hopes to land a much bigger fight in his next ring outing and prefers for that fight to happen in the United States. Prior to this loss, Delgado was riding a five fight win streak.

And which one will you believe? The one who's actually appearing on HBO or the one who'll probably never fight on HBO again?
I believe the fighter willing to fight,to say HBO would not want this fight is dumb..

You used to be a decent poster, but now you're becoming more and more of a racist troll.
Holy irony, Batman!

Only African-Americans can be "REAL" champs, is that how you feel, Larry?

That's a true sttement that he made when you stop to think about it. Even though I think Judah is the biggest waste of talent there ever was, he was still the undisputed cham at 147 until he lost to Tata. The belt has been paper ever since starting with him after Floyd decided not to fight for it.

Light punching Demetrius Hopkins would have knocked out Delgado, wait he already did, so did a bunch of other guys before tonight. So how is Delgado in a title fight?
