The shorter Terrell from nearby Cary pressured from the outset. He landed some right hands as Ivanovski tried to box. The 23 year old Israeli had trouble keeping Terrell off of him early. Towards the end of the first, Ivanovski fired several consecutive left hooks with great success.
Daniel, who was announced as hailing from Philadelphia and was called "David" by the broadcast team, dominated the second round. He landed his beautiful left hooks and chopping right hands at will. He won the third round too as Terrell tired. Terrell's right uppercut on the inside found the target on occasion, but it wasn't nearly enough.
The man from North Cackalacky ran out of the corner to start the final round as if his shoe was lit on fire. He landed a right and came boring in when his head cut Ivanovski by the left eye. Ivanovski then boxed which soon negated Terrell's aggression and saved his eye from further damage. The Israeli landed some nice one-twos, overhand rights, and kept his left hook pumping.
The Jewish Boxing Blog scored the bout 39-37 for Ivanovski. One judge agreed with The JBB while two others gave Daniel every round, scoring the contest 40-36. Terrell, who was 196.6 pounds, is now 0-1-1. Ivanovski, who was 192, is 4-0 with 3 KOs. This was his second victory in eight days.
Ivanovski is a fluid boxer with a stunning left hook and solid jab. Because his left is such an effective weapon, he is susceptible to right hands. He has been active since turning pro in September, but the cut will surely slow down his progress. There's a lot to like about the cruiserweight prospect, but his defense needs to improve as he steps up.
