Tavoris Cloud wins first fight since 2014

Tavoris Cloud TKO3 Ryan Soft ... Former IBF light heavyweight champion Tavoris Cloud (25-3) returned to the ring for the first time in over six years and stopped South Dakota's Ryan Soft (4-12-1) in Daytona Beach Florida. A cloud combination put Soft down in round three. Soft beat the count and wanted to continue, but the referee waved the bout off. Cloud, now 38 years old, had a nice run as IBF champion from 2009-2013 but stopped fighting after three straight losses to a murderer's row of Bernard Hopkins, Adonis Stevenson, and a then little-known Artur Beterbiev, the currentIBF/WBC champion.
