Deontay Wilder's brother loses to journeyman who had lost nine fights in a row

Deontay Wilder's brother Marsellos was unable to defeat 6-13 journeyman Eric Abraham in his boxing return last night.

The cruiserweight fighter was out of the ring for over two years after the coronavirus pandemic, last boxing in November of 2019 against Dustin Long on the undercard of his brother's rematch with Luis Ortiz. He was knocked out by 2-1-2 Long on that card, and opted to take time away before returning in Florida yesterday.

But the result wasn't much better, with Abraham battling to a plucky split decision win over the younger Wilder on the undercard of Cesar Francis vs Mohamed Mimoune. Pro Box TV put on the event, where Wilder vs Abraham began the fight card at the Whitesands Events Center.
