Leavitt, who was discovered by the 'big boss' after appearing on his reality show, 'Contender Series', managed to respond to his underdog status in the bookmakers. In a balanced fight against Ogden, the American emerged victorious in a split decision from the judges. The style of celebration, now, has already been marked by Jordan.

Previously, he had already celebrated in the same way by beating Matt Sayles with an inverted triangle, in December 2021. Professional since 2017, he has a record of ten positive results and one negative.
