Oleksandr Hrytsiv Defends WBC Francophone Bridgerweight Title
Bridgerweight champion Oleksandr Hrytsiv (12-0, 8 KO) successfully retained his WBC Francophone title after securing a technical knockout (TKO) victory over challenger Serhiy Radchenko (11-9, 5 KO) in their bout held in Lviv, Ukraine.
The contest, expected to be competitive, quickly became one-sided. Hrytsiv showcased his superiority and punching power, effectively working with short-range hooks that consistently broke through Radchenko’s defense. The champion set a pace that Radchenko was unable to match.
The fight ended prematurely after the ringside doctor raised the red card, indicating a hand injury to Radchenko that made it impossible for him to continue.
Several analysts present described Serhiy Radchenko’s performance as disappointing, noting that the challenger did not display the level required for a championship bout.
Oleksandr Hrytsiv thus retains his belt and reaffirms his status as a dominant force in the Bridgerweight division.
