O'Shaquie Foster Outclasses Raymond Ford to Retain WBC World Title in Chaotic Houston Grudge Match

Posted : 31 May 2026

O'Shaquie Foster successfully defended his WBC super-featherweight championship with a hard-fought majority decision victory over Raymond Ford at the Fertitta Center in Houston, Texas. The highly anticipated grudge match delivered immediate drama when Ford was sensationally thrown through the ropes and out of the ring during a chaotic opening round. Despite the wild sequence, the referee chose not to deduct a point from the champion, allowing the intense division rivalry to resume without penalty.

Ford recovered quickly from the fall and utilized his superior hand speed to dictate the early rounds of the contest. The southpaw challenger effectively targeted the body and landed sharp counter-punches whenever the champion overcommitted. Foster struggled to establish his rhythm against the slick movement of the former WBA featherweight titleholder, leaving the scorecards tightly balanced by the midway point of the twelve-round championship bout.

The momentum shifted significantly during the second half of the fight as the champion increased his offensive output. Foster relied heavily on a consistent jab and heavy right-hand combinations to pressure his younger opponent. Ford visible slowed down under the relentless pace, appearing to tire in his fourth professional appearance since moving up to the 130-pound weight category. Foster capitalised on this fatigue by dominating rounds seven through nine to secure a clear advantage.

The final judges' scorecards reflected Foster's late dominance with tallies of 118-110, 116-112, and an even 114-114 to seal the majority decision. Following the announcement, the triumphant champion became embroiled in a heated in-ring verbal exchange with pound-for-pound star Shakur Stevenson. The post-fight confrontation highlighted Foster's immediate desire to pursue lucrative unification matchups against the elite names of the division.
