Unbeaten heavyweight contender Lucas “Big Daddy” Browne (22-0, 19 KOs) scored a fifth round TKO over 300+ pound veteran Chauncey Welliver (55-8-5, 22 KOs) on Wednesday night at the Hisense Arena in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. The fight was stopped after round five due to Welliver’s left eye being closed.

In an entertaining slugfest, junior welterweight Lenny Zappavigna (33-2, 22 KOs) scored a seventh round TKO over Miguel Castillo (26-4, 24 KOs). Zappavigna dropped Castillo in round one and got the stoppage in round seven with a barrage of unanswered punches. Time was 2:46.

Unbeaten super featherweight Kye MacKenzie (13-0, 11 KOs) scored a tenth round TKO over former world title challenger Clive Atwell (12-2-1, 7 KOs). The referee intervened to save Atwell from further punishment. Time was 1:11.
