Dubois down three times, stops Lerena in three
WBA regular heavyweight champion Daniel Dubois (19-1, 18 KOs) came back from the dead to stop Kevin Lerena (28-2, 14 KOs) in round three on Saturday night in the Fury-Chisora co-feature at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London. Lerena surprisingly dropped 16:1 Dubois three times in round one and Dubois was saved by the bell! Then for some reason Lerena took his foot off the gas pedal in round two and let Dubois clear his head. Dubois took full advantage of that courtesy and turned the tables in round three. He dropped Lerena and then savagely dropped him again at the bell. Lerena beat the count, but referee Howard Foster waved it off rather than letting Lerena have the minute between rounds to recover.
