In what was supposed to be a tuneup for his fall return, Olympic gold medal winner Rakhim Chakhkiev (24-1, 18KOs) had all he could handle in winning an eight round unanimous decision over Hamilton Ventura (14-2-1, 12KOs). The scores were 77-73, 77-74 and 76-75.
Chakhkiev went down in the third and the eight, while Ventura was down in the fourth.
The next assignment for the Russian contender is a scheduled showdown with Ola Afolabi (21-4-4, 10KOs) on November 4th at the Basket-Hall Arena in Kazan.
