Baluta is no stranger to upsetting the home fighter on UK shores, and provided another last night as he got the razor thin decision in his favour.
It was a scrappy affair, as Foster started positively landing a big left hook early on, but Baluta fired back throwing relentlessly and landing a few punches.
As the fight went on, Foster picked up an injury to his right hand as he started to reduce the output from his right side. Baluta went on an all out attack in the final round in attempt to swing the bout into his favour, and reaped the the rewards as he was awarded the unanimous decision after a messy ten rounds.
An incredibly close fight goes the distance! ????
