Viloria Knocks Out Solis To Capture The IBF Title

By Mark Vester

At the Araneta Coliseum in Quezon City, Metro Manila, Philippines, Brian Viloria (25-2, 15 KOs) knocked out Ulises Solis (28-2-2, 20 KOs) in the eleventh round to capture the IBF junior flyweight title.

Viloria appeared to be much stronger than Solis in the first half of the fight, rocking him in the first and busting him up until the midway point. Solis, cut above both eyes and sensing that he was behind on the cards, began to use his boxing skills to take over the fight. Viloria would counter by mounted his own comeback in the championship rounds. He caught Solis with a hard right that sent Solis down for the count.

Tyson Fury says he’s done with boxing ... but should we believe him?

Tyson Fury insists he’s officially retired from boxing, claiming he’s “too old and grey” and that the sport is now a young man’s game. Despite his firm stance, speculation continues to grow about a potential return in 2026, most notably for a highly anticipated trilogy fight with Oleksandr Usyk, which could tempt Fury back into the ring one last time.
