Jairzinho Roznestruik is the first Dirty Boxing champion.
The longtime UFC veteran faced Rakim Cleveland in the main event of DBX 3 at The Hangar at Regatta Harbour in Miami on Friday night for the inaugural Dirty Boxing heavyweight championship. Rozenstruik knocked Cleveland unconscious 1:54 into the opening round to win the championship.
The first minute of the fight was a feeling out process, with maybe one punch thrown. The action picked up quickly with a big exchange, and Rozenstruik got the better of it, and the fight was over shortly thereafter. Check out the finish below.
Following the win, Rozenstruik faced off with former UFC heavyweight champ Andrei Arlovski, and the promotion announced that title fight will likely take place at DBX 4 at a date to be announced later.
In the co-main event, Hector Lombard, one of the biggest favorites on the card, was put away in just 19 seconds by James Cannon. The crowd was absolutely stunned to see Lombard hit he canvas in such quick and emphatic fashion.
Former UFC fighter Bryan Battle competed in his first fight since being released by the UFC a little over a week ago after back-to-back weight misses. Battle destroyed Derik de Freitas, who was completely overmatched, in the middleweight featured bout. Jessica-Rose Clark also earned a main card victory with a unanimous decision win against Claudia Zamora.
