Alfonso beats Bergman for IBF/USBA Belt

By Fightnews.com

Undefeated heavyweight Robert Alfonso (13-0, 5 KOs) captured the vacant IBF/USBA Southern Region Heavyweight Title Friday night with a workmanlike 10 round decision over former WBA-NABA champ Jason Bergman (26-15, 17kos) at the Belk Center in Tuscaloosa, AL. Alfonso, a former Cuban Olympian, showed superior skills using jabs and uppercuts to keep Bergman off balance throughout earning the win. To his credit, Bergman, who took the fight on 1 week notice, pressed the action at times in the 10 rounder and proved to be Alfonso’s stiffest test to date. Scores were 99-91 and 99-90 (twice).
