Pakistan’s star boxer Muhammad Waseem returned to winning in spectacular style on Friday by knocking out his Filipino opponent Conrado within 82 seconds of the opening round.

By doing so, Waseem, who had suffered the sole defeat of his pro career last year in a world title bout, bounced back and improved his professional boxing record to 9-0 ( KOs).

What makes Waseem’s victory even more impressive is that he floored Tanamor with a barrage of left hooks and body shots.

The manner of Tanamoor’s fall makes it clear that it was Waseem’s shot to his body that did the most damage.

Waseem, 32, is Pakistan’s most prominent pugilist and had an unbeaten record until he copped his first defeat against South Africa’s Moruti Mthalane last year.

The trajectory of Chaman-born’s career, however, has been bogged by financial issues.
