\"VijenderLondon:<\/strong> India’s boxing sensation Vijender Singh continued his march towards a huge summer homecoming with a punishing stoppage win over Frenchman Matiouze Royer. Vijender Singh wasted no time and had his opponent on the back foot from the off, finding his way past Royer’s defence with accurate uppercuts.<\/p>\n

France’s Royer was on the receiving end of some brutal punishment throughout the five rounds and was saved by the doctor waving off the fight at 1:52 in round five.<\/p>\n

Afterwards Viender Singh said “We had a solid game plan and I stuck to it perfectly. Royer is a tough opponent and made it difficult for me at times but he couldn’t handle my power and accuracy. I felt in complete control throughout the fight and it’s a shame the ref waved it off, I wanted more!<\/p>\n

“It felt like everything I was throwing was connecting. I’m feeling stronger with every fight and want to carry on this momentum. I’ve got a huge Indian homecoming to look forward to this summer so it’s vital I get past my next opponent in Bolton.”<\/p>\n

“Winning my fifth bout against an experienced opponent will be helpful for me before homecoming WBO Asia Title fight. My immediate target is to win sixth fight in a row which is scheduled for 13 May in UK and will be back to training from tomorrow onwards to prepare hard for it” said Vijender Singh.<\/p>\n

Neerav Tomar, Singh’s Indian promoter, said “I’m very impressed with Vijender tonight. He’s showed everyone what he’s capable of and I’m excited for his future. He’s completely dedicated to his training and it showed tonight. He looked levels above Royer, who’s rarely stopped. Everything is shaping up nicely for his homecoming bout, all he needs to do now is get past his May 13th bout”.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
