Alhambra A. vs Messaoudi Anas Result, Score & Stats

💪 It’s déjà vu in the ring: their first clash for the vacant EBU welterweight title on June 19 was halted in the sixth round after an accidental headbutt left Alhambra with a cut. The judges’ scorecards were dead even — one had it 58-56 for Alhambra, another 58-56 for Messaoudi, and the third scored it 57-57. Early on, Messaoudi looked sharper, dictating range and landing cleaner counters, while Alhambra found his rhythm as the bout progressed.

Heading into the rematch, I’m leaning towards Messaoudi. The Belgian remains undefeated with 18 wins and two draws, including 12 stoppages, and was riding a lengthy winning streak before that technical draw. Most importantly, their first meeting highlighted how Messaoudi’s work at range unsettled Alhambra—especially before the Spaniard could adjust his tactics. If Messaoudi manages his pace over the full 12 rounds, he has a solid case to claim the rematch either on points or inside the distance. Prediction: Anas Messaoudi to win.
