Mairis Briedis Retains IBO Title After Controversial Deduction and Dorticos Defeat

Vacant IBO Crown and Unpaid Sanction Fees

On Sunday, September 27, 2020, Mairis Briedis emerged victorious over Yuniel Dorticos in a controversial World Boxing Super Series (WBSS) bout. However, the fight was marred by an incident that resulted in a point deduction for Briedis and the subsequent vacating of his International Boxing Organization (IBO) cruiserweight title.

Unpaid Sanction Fees

Adding to the controversy, it was revealed that Briedis had failed to pay the sanction fee to the IBO. This omission led to the organization stripping him of the championship.

The Fight and Point Deduction

In the second round, Briedis was penalized by referee Robert Byrd for elbowing Dorticos. The deduction proved pivotal, as Briedis ultimately won the bout by majority decision with scores of 114-113, 115-112, and 113-114.

Briedis' Boxing Career

Born on January 13, 1985, Mairis Briedis has established himself as a formidable force in the cruiserweight division. He has held multiple world titles, including the IBF and Ring magazine championships. His current professional record stands at 28 wins, 2 losses, and 0 draws, with an impressive 20 knockouts.
