Boxing Results: Liam Paro smashes Navarro – Brutal Knockouts & Who’s Next

Liam Paro made a mess of Jonathan Navarro Wednesday night in Cairns, flattening the Yank in round five and forcing him to quit on his stool. The left hand was filthy. Navarro got up, got battered again, then waved it off. That’s how you kick off a new contract — fists first, no talking.

Paro walked through him, and now No Limit’s George Rose is talking about Teofimo Lopez, Ryan Garcia, or Isaac Cruz next.

Paro destroys, Wilson grits it out, Peters detonates another poor sod

Paro didn’t bother warming up. He chinned Navarro in the fifth with a left that spun him round, then chased him to the ropes and battered what was left of him. The American had no answers. Probably still looking for them now.

Liam Wilson had to graft for his win over Ayrton Gimenez, but got it done. Judges had it 98-92, 97-93, 96-94. Bit messy, but he wants Navarrete again — and after how the first one ended, fair play. At least Wilson’s got chin and spite.

Callum Peters? Same old story. One round. Another KO. 92 seconds and it was lights out for Luca Lanigan. He’s shouting for Xavier Fletcher next and, credit where it’s due, Fletcher said he’ll take it. Good — maybe someone will last past the first round.

Kirra Ruston gave Kartik Kumar a sleeping pill in round two. Straight up Knockout of the Year stuff — no debate. And Vegas Larfield edged past Filipino Bryan Cabrillos, despite a dodgy knockdown that had half the arena yelling robbery. He still boxed his way through.
