Andy Cruz wasn’t flawless, but scored a great knockout win in the end.
Andy Cruz improved to 4-0 (2 KO) with a seventh round knockout win over veteran Antonio Moran.
The Cuban sensation, who won a gold medal at the Tokyo Olympics, wasn’t flawless in the bout, as Moran (30-7-1, 21 KO) probably deserved to win a couple of rounds, and did seem to sting Cruz in the fifth round, which Cruz acknowledged after the fight.
