Professional career
editMilas made his professional debut on 8 December 2015, scoring a first-round technical knockout (TKO) over Marin Zulum at the Joker Gym in Split, Croatia.[3]
After compiling a record of 10–0 (8 KOs) he faced former world title challenger, Kevin Johnson, for the IBO International heavyweight title[4] on 10 March 2018 at the Maritim Berghotel in Braunlage, Germany. Milas became the second person to stop Johnson in 41 fights, capturing the IBO International title by eighth-round TKO after the referee called a halt to the contest on the advice of the ringside doctor due to a cut above Johnson's left eye.[5] After retaining the title via unanimous decision (UD) against former world title challenger Francesco Pianeta in June,[6] he defeated Mirko Tintor on 6 October at the TuS Halle in Traunreut, Germany, capturing the vacant WBC Mediterranean heavyweight title via fourth-round knockout (KO).[7]
