American boxer Andrew Tabiti snatched the WBO African Bridgerweight title from Ghana's Jacob Dickson on Friday night during the 'Battle of the Beasts' tournament held at the Bukom Boxing Arena.
The fight, originally scheduled for 12 rounds, ended in the fourth round after Dickson hit the canvas thrice in four rounds.
As the main fighters for the night, their bout was scheduled last among about 10 fights.
However, it was clear that Ghana's Dickson was struggling to compete with his inability to go through half of the twelve rounds.
It all started when Dickson was sent straight to the canvas in the first round following a heavy upper cut from the Mayweather trainee.
Despite the chants and cheers from fight fans, even the presence of legendary boxer Azumah Nelson and Joshua Clottey wasn't enough motivation for the WBO Africa Bridgerweight title holder to mount a comeback.
Dickson also suffered a furious barrage of punches to different parts of his head as Tabiti worked him with powerful body shots.
