Shiming is coming off a TKO win against Natan Santana Countinho last January at the Shanghai Oriental Sports Center in Shanghai, China to win the vacant WBO International Flyweight title.
Shiming gave Countinho a boxing lesson as he piled up points halfway to the 12-round fight, scoring at will as the unbeaten challenger ran for safety early in the eighth round when he pinned Coutinho on the ring ropes as Shiming threw as series of power punches that were unanswered, giving the referee no choice but to stop the fight at 2:17 of the eighth round.
While Shiming was at his best in his against Countinho, he failed to score a knockout win against Ajtai, who was more concerned about sticking to his defensive fight plan.
Shiming was trying to pressure Ajtai to engage but the 19-year-old Hungarian failed to put up a good defense prompting Shiming to take the offensive side and ran away with a lopsided victory.
All judges came up with identical scores of 100-89 in favor of Shiming,
It was Shiming’s fight in the US since turning pro in 2013.
Shiming trains at Freddie Roach’s Wild Card Gym in Hollywood and is fighting under Bob Arum’s Top Rank Promotions.
With the win, Shiming improves his professional career record to 8-1-0 with two knockouts while ajtai dropped to 15-3-0.
Three judges all score it same as @NewsdaySports, 100-89, for #ZouShiming.
