Bell retains cruiserweight title
Jamaica's O'Neil Bell overcame two point deductions to retain his IBF cruiserweight title with an 11th-round knockout of Sebastian Rothmann.

The US-based Bell (25-1-1, 23 KOs) was ahead on one judge's card 95-93, while the other two had the fight even.

He was deducted points for hitting below the belt in the seventh and ninth rounds after an earlier warning.

Israel-born Rothmann, 31, (18-4-2) was knocked cold by two heavy shots at 2:09 of the 11th round.
