    In a stunning display of skill and determination, Jai Opetaia has made his mark in the Zuffa Boxing promotion, securing a dominant victory over Brandon Glanton in Las Vegas. Despite being stripped of his IBF cruiserweight title due to his move to Zuffa, Opetaia’s flawless record remains intact, and he now holds the inaugural Zuffa world cruiserweight championship belt.

    Opetaia, a 30-year-old Australian southpaw with an impressive reach and a record of 29-0, showcased his prowess in the ring, outclassing his American opponent, Brandon Glanton. The fight, which was broadcast in the United States on Paramount+ and available for free on Zuffa Boxing’s YouTube channel in the United Kingdom, saw Opetaia delivering powerful shots, particularly effective uppercuts, throughout the match.

    The judges’ scorecards reflected Opetaia’s dominance, with all three scoring the fight 119-106 in his favor. This victory takes Opetaia’s professional record to a perfect 30-0, further solidifying his position as the top cruiserweight in the world. Despite the win not adding to his knockout tally, Opetaia’s performance was a clear statement of his intentions in the cruiserweight division.

    Following the fight, Opetaia expressed his ambition to unify the cruiserweight titles, stating, “I’m chasing the belts.” This goal includes potentially regaining the IBF belt he was recently stripped of. Opetaia’s focus remains on the established world titles, and he is determined to become the undisputed cruiserweight king.

    Opetaia’s debut in the Zuffa Boxing promotion has set the stage for an exciting future in the cruiserweight division. With his sights set on unifying the titles, fans can expect to see more thrilling performances from this Australian powerhouse.

    As Opetaia continues his journey, the boxing world watches with anticipation, eager to see if he can achieve his goal of becoming the undisputed cruiserweight champion. His recent victory is a testament to his skill and determination, and it will be exciting to see what the future holds for this talented fighter.
