Junior lightweight Gairy `Superman’ St. Clair won a unanimous decision over Philippine Roberto Oyan in a six round fight, held on December 7, 2007. The contest was held at the Wyong RSL Club in New South Wales.
The fight came just after St Clair lost an IBF super featherweight title eliminator to Cassius Baloyi. He had earlier in his career defeated Baloyi to become the first Guyanese to hold two world titles. `Superman’ as St. Clair is called, travelled to South Africa in 2006 where on July 29 he defeated Baloyi via a unanimous decision.
In doing so, St. Clair won both the International Boxing Federation and International Boxing Organization super featherweight titles.
However, he was unable to hold on to the crowns for long as he lost Malcolm Klassen in his first defence.
