Silva was saved by the bell after Umohette unleashed a flurry of punches in the final seconds of Round 2.

The IBA title Umohette's next pursuit?
Umohette is now set to vie for an IBA (International Boxing Association) heavyweight title in the coming months.
In May 2023, the Nigerian boxer took on Brayan "Tortas" Guzman in Tijuana, Mexico, in an 8-round heavyweight bout, which ended in a split draw after official scores of 77-75, 75-77 & 76-76 were received.
Punch reports that the former USA State of Wisconsin and Universal Boxing Federation International heavyweight boxing champion defeated William “Billy” Myers in 2022.
Don't leave boxing - AJ tells Ngannou
