Ckari Cani Mansilla Shocks Dylan Price with Eighth-Round
Ckari Cani Mansilla pulled off one of the biggest upsets in recent boxing history, stopping previously undefeated prospect Dylan Price with a brutal eighth-round KO at Misfits Boxing 21, held at Vaillant Live in Derby, England on May 16, 2025.
A Fight That Defied Expectations
Price (19-1, 12 KOs) entered the bout as a massive favorite, boasting an undefeated record and a reputation for technical brilliance. Mansilla (18-4, 10 KOs), however, had other plans. From the opening bell, the Argentine fighter pressed forward, refusing to let Price dictate the pace.
Despite Price’s early success, Mansilla’s relentless aggression began wearing him down. By Round 6, Price’s movement had slowed, and Mansilla started landing clean power shots, setting the stage for the dramatic finish.
The Knockout Sequence
Midway through Round 8, Mansilla landed a thudding straight right, sending Price crashing to the canvas. The referee immediately stepped in, waving off the fight at 2:42 of the round, as Price lay motionless on the mat.
The shocking result sent ripples through the boxing world, as Dylan Price entered at 19–0 (13 KOs) streak came to a sudden and violent end.
What’s Next for Mansilla?
With this victory, Mansilla has positioned himself as a legitimate contender in the super bantamweight division. His promoter has hinted at a title eliminator bout later this year, potentially setting him up for a shot at championship gold.
Meanwhile, Price will need to regroup after his first professional loss. Whether he pursues an immediate rematch or takes time to rebuild remains uncertain.
Final Thoughts
Mansilla’s performance at Misfits Boxing 21 was nothing short of spectacular. His ability to pressure opponents, land precise shots, and finish fights proves he’s a serious force in the division.
Will Mansilla continue his rise, or will Price come back stronger? Fight fans will be watching closely.
