Hannock Phiri TKO9 Yona Segu... Hannock Phiri (11-2) from Malawi stopped Tanzanian Yona Segu (19-11-2) in a lightweight title on Friday night, April 9th, at Ubungo Plaza in Dar Es Salaam. The 23 year-old “Hardknocker” Phiri had lost a big fight in Tanzania last September by split decision, a fight he felt he deserved to win, so he didn't want to leave things in the hands of the judges this time. As the fight entered the last third it was still very close on the cards, Phiri leading by one point on two and the third having it all even. But the younger and fresher visitor took over the momentum of the fight and eventually floored Segu conclusively, forcing the stoppage from referee Pendo Njau at 0:48 of round nine. Phiri vs. Segu headlined a card billed as “Fist of the Lions II”, promoted by Mapoa Entertainment and broadcast live by Azam TV. source: wbf
