Indian boxer Neeraj Goyat, who is signed to Most Valuable Promotions, locked horns with former Bellator MMA fighter and boxer Anthony Taylor on the main card of Misfits Boxing 23 this past weekend in Dubai.
Tension between the two was high before the fight, with Taylor offending Goyat by disparaging the latter’s nation and its lack of talented boxers.
Inside the squared circle, ‘Gangster’ had to answer, and he did. With effective footwork and head movement, he evaded Taylor’s vicious blows. After the first round, it was all Neeraj Goyat with his multi-punch combos doing most of the damage, and Taylor failing to land clean consistently.
