Stevenson retains title

ADONIS Stevenson successfully defended his World Boxing Council light-heavyweight title on Saturday, unanimously outpointing Poland’s Andrzej Fonfara at Bell Centre. The 36-year-old Stevenson (24-1) picked himself off the canvas in the ninth round before battling back in the 10th to preserve the victory in his third title defense. Fonfara (25-3) was knocked down in the first round and again with a body shot in fifth, but the lanky 26-year-old fighter kept coming back and going on the attack. In the final round, he caught Stevenson with a right and went all out for the knockout.
