Vanhouter Seeks Fourth Zuffa Stoppage of 2026 Against Balaz
The unbeaten 21-year-old brings seven consecutive knockout wins into Saturday’s heavyweight bout in London.
Da’Mazion Vanhouter will seek his fourth Zuffa Boxing stoppage of 2026 when he faces Ivan Balaz on Saturday at Copper Box Arena in London.
The 21-year-old heavyweight is 13-0 with 10 knockouts and has stopped seven consecutive opponents. His three Zuffa wins this year came against Julian Gomez in the third round in February, Raphael Murphy in the first in May and Raphael Akpejiori in the first in September.
Vanhouter told Zuffa Boxing he has become calmer and more patient since his promotional debut.
Friday’s official weigh-in put Vanhouter at 230.6 pounds and Balaz at 244.8 for their eight-round bout.
