Launching a ruthless onslaught of heavy power punches, undefeated Vijender Singh decimated his opponent Charles Adamu to win his straight 12th Pro Boxing fight at Caesars Palace Bluewaters in Dubai on Friday night.

In fact, it was a matter of surprise that Charles survived all eight rounds despite looking like on the brink of a knock-out any moment in a highly one-sided contest as Vijender was declared a winner by decision at the Rotunda Rumble 2 arena.
