At Kevin Betts Stadium in Sydney, Australia, on Wednesday, Charly Suarez stopped Paul Fleming in the twelfth round of a match between two undefeated former Olympians, pulling a victory out of the fire.

The scores at the time of stoppage were 106-103, 107-102, and 108-101 for the local fighter Fleming according to the three Australian judges, but the Filipino challenger ended the bout on his own will, making the results irrelevant. With a minute left in the fight, Suarez (15-0, 9 knockouts) of San Isidro, Philippines, delivered the crucial save blow, knocking down Fleming (28-1-1, 18 KOs) with a left hook that had him all but done.
