The overall victory was assured for the Domadores when Roniel Iglesias Sotolongo won every round to subject Britain’s Haizel Ekow Tabiri-Essuman to his first defeat of the season.
Light heavyweight (81 kg) Julio Cesar De La Cruz is one of the best performers in his weight class in the entire boxing world, and lived up to his reputation when he won every minute of every round against Lionheart John Newell.
British Lionhearts Super heavyweight (91+ kg) Joseph Joyce then won a consolation match for his Franchise, but an important one for his Olympic Games qualification hopes by earning a split decision verdict against Lenier Eunice Pero to continue his undefeated record in WSB, while giving the Cuban his first WSB defeat.
Cuba Domadores travel away next week to Ukraine Otamans, while British Lionhearts welcome Mexico Guerreros to London.
