The New York-based light heavyweight prospect won the third fight off his 2015 campaign in familiar fashion, stopping his 25-year old opponent via a second round TKO.

‘2 Sharpe’ sliced through Gonsalves defence and dropped him with a left hook to the head. Gonsalves then went down for the 10-count at one minute, 40 seconds of round seven in the scheduled eight-rounder.

The undefeated Allen, 166 pounds of Brooklyn, NY is now 20-0-1 with 13 knockouts. Zeller, 167lbs of Kistarcsa, Hungary dropped to 24-8-0.

In an invited comment to Stabroek Sport yesterday, Allen who KO’d Kojo Issah (round two) in January and Paul Gonsalves in April disclosed that he is looking forward for a world title crack mid next year.

Said the 30-year old southpaw, “Right now we are looking for one of the top 10 guys because I hope to fight for a world title in May or June of 2016.”
