British boxer Ben Whittaker suffered a robbery at his home last Saturday night, coinciding with his knockout victory in the first round against German Benjamin Gavazi at the NEC arena in Birmingham. Whittaker (10-0-1, 7 KOs) starred in an impressive fight, securing a knockout in the first round. This triumph marked his return to the ring after his last fight in April and his debut with Matchroom Boxing. Upon returning to his home in Wednesbury, a town near Birmingham, the light heavyweight encountered the unpleasant surprise of a robbery.
Ups and downs of sports.
