Ivan Redkach stops Demond Brock in Round 8

In an 8-round fight, Ivan Redkach (20-2-1, 16 KOs) out-boxed and outclass Demond Brock (13-4-1, 4 KOs) in the Carl Frampton vs Leo Sta Cruz rematch at the MGM Grand, Las Vegas, Nevada on Saturday.

Redkach, 30, of Shostka, Ukraine by way of Los Angeles, California, was fighting from the outside from the get-go all the way to what it looks like the final bell. But the fight end up with a stoppage to Redkach's credit. He's been tagging Brock with uppercuts and hooks while maintaining distance.

Brock, 35,  of Kenner, Louisiana, tried to close the gap stalking Redkach with body shots that landed few times but produced little effect.

In round 8, Redkach landed series of unanswered shots, starting from a left hand then a right hand that sent Brock down. Brock managed to get up but was again tagged with shots that opted the referee to stop the fight at 2:30.
