I am very happy to win in the U.S.," the victory came in the second minute of the fourth round when Vijender beat Snyder with a straight punch, forcing the referee to bout in favour of this Indian boxer.

For your information, let's say this is Vijender's eighth win. The 38-year-old Snyder's punch didn't show much strength during the entire bout, while Vijender's punch, which returned more than a year later, was quite accurate and powerful. Vijender did not show any threat against the local strong contender and easily stopped Snyder's weak attack. Snyder's winning record is 13-5-3. Former WBO Asia Pacific champion Vijender had recently contested from the South Delhi seat in the general election but lost. Vijender wants to take part in two more fights this year after contracting with Tom Rank promotions of 'Hall of Fame' Bab Arum.
