Australian heavyweight boxer<\/a> Jackson Murray moved to 6-0 with a six-round unanimous decision win over Steven Torres, in a solid US debut that came with a few shenanigans from the latter.<\/p>\n

Both fighters were warned by the referee for dubious conduct even though Murray, nicknamed 'White Chocolate', landed a knockdown in the third with a right hook. Replays showed the punch landed on the back of Torres' head, which is illegal.<\/p>\n

Torres, meanwhile, was warned to keep it professional when he tried to to kiss Murray during the fifth round, in a move that left former world champion Tim Bradley Jr. dumbfounded.<\/p>\n

"What? Oh, no. He's trying to get into his head. That's what he's trying to do.<\/p>\n

"But what are you doing? What for? Why? I don't get it. You're not winning the fight right now. That's terrible."<\/p>\n

Torres needed a finish in the final round but could not find it as Murray remained active and was \ufeffeventually awarded the decision (60-53, 60-53, 60-53).<\/p>\n
