UBO World Super Featherweight Champion Giovannie Gonzalez (Pictured) stays busy when he fights a non-title rematch against undefeated Mexican Brandon Cortez on August 26 in his home-town of Stockton, California.

“King Gio” Gonzalez (14-6-1, 12 KOs) and Cortez (7-0-2, 6 KOs) fought to a draw in their original encounter back in September of 2020. Gonzalez has since registered four victories, while Cortez has gone 2-0-1 in the meantime.

UBO International Welterweight Champion Dmytro Zubko improved his unblemished record to 7-0 (4) when he defeated Enes Refik Ciftci (6-1, 4 KOs) by unanimous decision after eight rounds of non-title action on June 29 in Istanbul, Turkey.

The 26-year-old Ukrainian won the UBO title last December, stopping Achiko Odikadze in four.

Former UBO International Light Heavyweight Champion Jozef Jurko from Slovakia is set to fight on the biggest stage of his career.

It’s been announced that Jurko (9-6-1, 6 KOs) will be part of the massive Oleksandr Usyk vs. Anthony Joshua rematch undercard on August 20 at the Jeddah Superdome in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.

Jurko, who won the UBO title in July of 2021 when he stopped Stanislav Eschner in the Czech Republic, will take on undefeated Ukrainian Daniel Lapin (5-0).

Another former UBO International titlist, Middleweight Marc Dube, scored a first round stoppage of Georgian Nikoloz Berkatsashvili on July 16 in Cloppenburg, Germany.

Dube (32), UBO Champion in 2019, improved his professional record to 14-0 (12).

Dmytro Zubko vs. Achiko Odikadze

Roman Golovashchenko vs. Taryel Jafarov

Pochayna Event Hall in Kiev, Ukraine – 8 December 2021

Ukrainians Dmytro Zubko and Roman Golovashchenko won Universal Boxing Organization™ (UBO) International titles on Wednesday night, December 8, at Pochayna Event Hall in Kiev.

At Welterweight, Zubko stopped game but out-gunned Achiko Odikadze from Georgia in the fourth round to win what will likely be the first of many belts going forward.

Zubko, a 25-year-old highly touted prospect, used his significant reach-advantage to land frequently, but Odikadze was dangerous with wild attacks and clearly came to win.

In round three Zubko scored two knock-downs from right hands, but Odikadze showed grit and determination by getting up to fight back as hard as he could.

 However, after two more knock-downs in round four, the fight was waved off to save Odikadze from the inevitable onslaught.

The new UBO International Welterweight Champion improved his professional record to 6-0 (4). Odikadze (22) is now 23-19-1 (8).

 Roman Golovashchenko took his professional record to 21-5 (19) and picked up the UBO International Heavyweight title in the process, stopping last minute opponent Taryel Jafarov (8-4, 7 KOs) in the first round.

A former two-time UBO World title-challenger, Golovashchenko pressured Jafarov into a corner and unloaded, forcing the referee to stop the fight when the Azerbaijani offered no response.

Golovashchenko is now hoping for a third crack at the UBO world Heavyweight title in 2022, and will definitely be faced with sterner opposition.

  The show was promoted by Champion Boxing Promotion, and televised live by X Sport.

Roman Golovashchenko vs. TBA

Pochayna Event Hall, Kiev, Ukraine – 8 December 2021

Vacant UBO International Heavyweight title

Ukrainian Roman Golovashchenko (20-5, 18 KOs) is set to begin another run at winning the second world championship which has so far evaded him.

On December 8 he returns to fight in his birth-country for the first time in over five years, when he takes on an opponent to be confirmed for the vacant Universal Boxing Organization™ (UBO) International Heavyweight title in Kiev.

Winning and defending the GBC World Cruiserweight crown in 2009-2010, Golovashchenko lost a bid for the IBO World Cruiserweight title in 2018 to Kevin Lerena.

Later that same year, he came up short when challenging then UBO World Heavyweight titlist Alexander Frank.

He also lost a rematch to Frank in 2019, but now he hopes a third UBO world title fight can be arranged for 2022, and that it will be fourth-time-lucky for him.

Winning the UBO International title on December 11 will be a nice addition to IBF and IBO regional titles already won by Golovashchenko, but his ultimate goal is to once again become a world champion.

The fight will be part of a show promoted by Champion Boxing Promotions at Pochayna Event Hall, televised by X Sport.

The main event of the evening will be another UBO title fight, as budding star Dmytro Zubko (5-0, 3 KOs) faces Achiko Odikadze (23-18-1, 8 KOs) for the vacant International Welterweight title.

Dmytro Zubko vs. Achiko Odikadze

Kiev, Ukraine – 8 December 2021

Accomplished in the amateurs, highly regarded Ukrainian prospect Dmytro Zubko (5-0, 3 KOs) doesn’t plan on wasting any time in the pro ranks.

On December 8 in Kiev, less than a year after making his paid debut, Zubko will step up a level and fight for the vacant Universal Boxing Organization™ (UBO) International Welterweight title.

The Twenty-five year old has beaten fellow undefeated up-and-comers in his two most recent bouts, but in his first title fight he will be in with a very experienced opponent.

In the opposite corner will be Georgian Achiko Odikadze (23-18-1, 8 KOs), who has fought very good opposition since his debut in 2015, and is coming off a victory this past October.

Besides being vastly more experienced, Odikadze (22) is a southpaw and expected to present a genuine challenge for Zubko, who by many is predicted to be a future world champion.

The Zubko vs. Odikadze UBO International Welterweight title fight will be promoted by Champion Boxing Promotions.
