The Dancing Destroyer


Herbie Hide now campaigning as a cruiserweight is the former WBO heavyweight champion, Hide destroyed previously unbeaten Mikhail Nasyrov on Sunday night to claim the WBC International cruiserweight title at the Maritim Hotel Halle in Halle/Saale, Germany. The "Dancing Destroyer" dropped Nasyrov in round two, but Nasyrov survived the round. Nasyrov showed great toughness and the next few rounds were close. After Hide dropped Nasyrov again in the sixth with two big right hands, referee Mike Griffin stopped the bout at the 1:20 mark.
