Review: 2014-10-18, pretty good finish between Edner Cherry and Osumanu Akaba but it is not enough to get three stars. Edner Cherry entered this fight with a pro boxing record of 32-6-2 (17 knockouts) and he is ranked as the No.24 lightweight in the world, he suffered his last loss in 2008 when he faced then-undefeated Timothy Bradley in a fight valid for the Wbc light-Ww title; since then he has collected eight wins and one no-contest.
His opponent, Osumanu Akaba, has a record of 31-6-1 (24 KOs=77%) and he replaces Jerry Belmontes; Akaba has fought once in 2014 losing to Bahodir Mamadjonov. Cherry vs Akaba is on the undercard of Steve Cunningham vs Natu Visinia. Watch the video and rate this fight!

Edner deserves a title shot. He has been putting in the work that it takes to be a champion.
I dint even know he was still fighting.
