Dyer Suffers Third-Round TKO In Maine!

Baltimore, MD lightweight Jahmal Dyer lost by third-round TKO to the undefeated "Silent Assassin" William Foster III of New Haven, CT on Saturday, November 9th at the Expo Center in Portland, ME.

According to Mark Vaz of Fightnews.com, seconds into the first round, Dyer landed a clean left hook to the temple that briefly rocked Foster, who looked clearly hurt. It did not take long for Foster to regroup, however, as he soon found his range, picking his spots and winning the round.

Taking over in the second, Foster used hand speed and combination punching, punctuated by a fast, clean left hook he was able to land at will throughout. After a warning for a few low blows, referee Mike Ryan deducted a point from Foster, evening the round on the scorecards.

In the third round, however, Foster came out with a vengeance, picking Dyer apart, landing to the head and body, eventually finding his way through the defense and hurting Dyer, eventually sending him to the canvas with a barrage of clean punches. Referee Ryan called a halt to the bout at 2:55.

Dyer's record falls to 9-3, five KO's while Foster remains undefeated at 11-0, eight KO's.
