Meng's a cut above in blood-'n'-thunder defense
Meng Fanlong lived up to his "Cold Blood" nickname at the Monte Carlo Casino in Monaco on Saturday night.
The 30-year-old light heavyweight from Inner Mongolia, who represented China at the 2012 London Olympics, administered a bloody beating to Frank Buglioni, retaining the International Boxing Federation's intercontinental championship by stopping the Englishman on cuts in the fifth round.
Meng, who improved to 14-0 with 9 KOs, was coming off a TKO win over Chris Eppley in July in what was his first bout of 2018. He fought three times in 2017 and four times in 2016.
