Gvozdyk methodically out-boxed Chilemba until the Malawi’s ‘Golden Boy’ couldn’t continue after nine rounds due to an arm injury .

Ukraine’s Gvozdyk (12-0, 10 KOs) had bloodied Chilemba’s nose .

The 29-year-old Chilemba (24-5-2, 10 KOs) lost a third straight fight and was stopped for the first time in his 11-year pro career.

“I am devastated,” Chilemba said. “If I hadn’t hurt my right arm in the third round it would have been a completely different outcome.

“I was in an incredible amount of pain from the third round through the rest of the fight.”
