LIAM PARO IS THE NEW IBF WELTERWEIGHT CHAMPION!!!
The judges score it 115-113 in favour of the Australian.
An amazing moment for Paro, who is overcome with emotion as he etches his name into the history books alongside Jeff Fenech.
“This means everything, it’s a long hard road – I climbed the mountain once and I did it again … man, I’m speechless,” he said.
“It’s been a long f—–g road. I had so many people telling me I couldn’t.”
Paro becomes the second male Aussie boxer to capture world titles in two different weight classes after Fenech in the 1980s.
