Cassius Chaney pushed past what was literally his biggest test to date.

The unbeaten Baltimore-bred heavyweight picked up his first win of 2020, extending his knockout run in the process with a 4th round stoppage of Chauncy Welliver. The one-sided affair was mercifully stopped with Welliver on his feet but unable to defend himself from an accumulation of punches in the opening bout Friday evening at Osceola Heritage Park in Kissimmee, Florida.

Chaney was in control from the opening bell, though some would argue from the moment the fight was signed. Welliver (57-13-5, 25KOs) arrived at a career-heaviest 378 pounds, not at all bearing the look of a boxer who put in any work prior to entering the ring.

It showed in their respective performances, with Chaney taking the fight directly to his shorter and slower foe, the difference in hand speed and overall talent glaringly apparent. It was rinse and repeat round after round, with Chaney going on the attack while Welliver was left to do little more than absorb.

The trend reached a boiling point, when referee Frank Gentile decided there was no longer a need for the fight to continue in waving off the contest in the fourth round.

Chaney rolls to 19-0 (13KOs), having now stopped each of his last eight opponents. The 33-year old—who now hails from New London, Connecticut but trains out of, and often lives in, German Caicedo’s sports complex in Miami, Florida—is managed by Zachary Levin and promoted by Main Events.

Georgian lightweight Otar Eranosyan enjoyed a successful pro debut, overwhelming Holland, Michigan’s DeShawn Kennedy (0-2) en route to a 2nd round knockout.

Eranosyan forced an aggressive pace, fighting composed but with the intention to end his first pro bout as early as possible. Kennedy did his best to roll with the punches, though not offering much return fire. Eranosyan went on the attack in round two, trapping Kennedy in a corner and unloading with power shots including a series of crushing body shots. A left-right combination forced Kennedy to a knee, never threatening to beat the count as the contest was waved off midway through round two.

Both bouts aired live on ESPN2 Mexico prior to the Telemundo feed going live in the United States, serving in supporting capacity to a featherweight clash between Belmar Preciado and Dennis ‘Martillo’ Contreras.
