Former WBA champ Browne stops Long

By Ray Wheatley — World of Boxing

Former WBA heavyweight champion Lucas “Big Daddy” Browne (26-1, 23 KOs) scored a third round knockout over Julius Long (18-21, 14 KOs) on Friday at the Gold Coast Convention Centre, Broadbeach, Queensland, Australia. Long was deducted a point in the second round for holding, and in round three Browne connected with a right hand bomb that dropped the 7’1 Long and the referee crowned the Australian.

“Credit to Julius, he really came to fight. He’s such a big awkward guy and he uses his advantages really well,” said Browne. “I knew once I caught him the fight was over and it’s always nice to get the stoppage.

“There’s been some talk about David Allen in the UK too. I’ve always loved fighting over there and would love to come back over and make amends for my fight against Dillian Whyte. And here in Australia, there’s talk about Alex Leapai, which would be a great fight for Aussie boxing.”
