Nikita Tszyu has overcome a nasty mid-fight moment to score a unanimous points win over Danilo Creati and retain his Australian super welterweight title at Sydney’s Hordern Pavilion. Tszyu caught Creati , with some powerful left hand shots in the first round in Wednesday’s clash, and the Italian-born challenger had a knockdown scored against him in the second, when his glove brushed the canvas.

” Tszyu regained the ascendancy in the latter rounds, pounding his opponent in the ninth and 10th, but Creati demonstrated tremendous conditioning and durability. Tszyu was taken beyond the sixth round for the first time and Creati, whose only previous loss was to Michael Zerafa, retained his proud record of never being stopped as a professional.
