Baranchyk won his Ali Trophy Quarter-Final, and also the vacant IBF World Super-Lightweight Championship by defeating Sweden’s Anthony Yigit after seven rounds of action.
The contest was stopped at the end of the seventh, due to the state of the left eye of Yigit who showed tremendous heart throughout the fight.
The hard-hitting Belarusian will take on Josh Taylor in the Semi-Finals in the New Year.
