    Undefeated Kerman Lejarraga (25-0, 20 KOs) destroyed the highly ranked Bradley Skeete (27-2, 12 KOs) by a 2nd round knockout to capture the vacant EBU welterweight title on Saturday night in a shocking upset at the Bilboa Arena.

    The 30-year-old Skeete never stood a chance, as he was completely over-matched by the much more powerful and young 25-year-old Spaniard Lejarraga. Skeete was knocked down three times in the contest before referee Daniel Van de Wiele finally halted the fight in round 2 after Skeete’s corner threw in the towel. Had Skeete been able to keep fighting, Lejarraga would have kept knocking him down, as he was much too powerful for him.

    Moments into the 2nd round, he shorter 5’9” Lejarraga knocked the 6’1” Skeete with a hard right hand to the head. Skeete hit the deck after stumbling backwards. Sensing that he had Skeete where he wanted hi, Lejarraga dropped him for a second time with a crushing left to the body. The punch put Skeete on the canvas on one knee.
