China's Zou fails in bid to clinch world title from Thailand's Amnat

THAILAND'S Amnat Ruenroeng retained his IBF flyweight title with a unanimous points victory over China's Zou Shiming at Cotai Arena in Macau on Saturday.

The undefeated Thai was content to box at distance for much of the fight and despite being knocked down in the second round coasted home 116-111 on all three judges' scorecards as Zou struggled to land many clean punches.

It was a crushing defeat on home soil for China's double Olympic gold medallistZou, who was fighting for the world title in just his seventh professional contest and only his second over the full distance of 12 rounds.
