Not only will the fans witness a tremendous main event, they will get to enjoy three action-packed match-ups that will add another level to the pay-per-view portion of the card,” заяви Леонард Ellerbe, CEO of Mayweather Promotions. “Both Jhack Tepora and Hugo Ruiz are looking to make a name for themselves in the stacked featherweight division, while Rau’shee Warren and Nordine Oubaali are in the prime of their careers and battling for the WBC title. Мейуедър Промоции’ Badou Jack has made an exemplary statement for his career inside and outside of the ring and is focused on further strengthening his resume, while Marcus Browne is looking to showcase his talent on boxing’s biggest stage.

Крик (22-1-3, 13 Нокаута) has fought twice at light heavyweight since relinquishing his super middleweight world title to campaign at 175 паунда. The 35-year-old, who was born in Stockholm, Швеция, represented his father’s Gambia in the 2008 Olympics and now lives in Las Vegas. Jack won the super middleweight world title with a majority decision against Anthony Dirrell in 2015 and successfully defended the title three times before he relinquished the belt following a hard-fought majority draw against James DeGale in one 2017’s best fights. In his first bout at 175 паунда, Jack stopped Nathan Cleverly to pick up the WBA light heavyweight title before fighting to a majority draw against Adonis Stevenson in his last fight on May 19.

I’m looking forward to getting back onto another big stage to perform for my fans across the globe and prove I am one of the best fighters in the world,” said Jack. “I plan to show off my skills with a dominating performance on January 19. I always want to fight the best, and he’s the best that’s available right now. I’m always 100 percent ready and I’m going into this fight stronger, faster and with more experience than ever before.

The 28-year-old Browne (22-0, 16 Нокаута) will be taking a step up to face an elite opponent when he battles Jack. Член на 2012 U.S. Олимпийски отбор по бокс, Browne moved up the contender ladder in the 175-pound division with brute force and power, scoring three straight knockout victories against Thomas Williams, Jr., Sean Monaghan and Francy Ntetu. Browne, who was born and raised in Staten Island, N.Y., scored a unanimous decision victory over Lenin Castillo in his last fight on August 4.

This is really an honor and a privilege to have an opportunity to showcase my talents on a big time pay-per-view card featuring Manny Pacquiao and Adrien Broner,” Browne said. “Badou Jack is a championship-caliber fighter and one of the toughest guys you can fight in the light heavyweight division. I’m ready for the step up in competition and focused on being a household name in the sport sooner rather than later.

Гъсто населена бедняшка къща (16-2, 4 Нокаута) is looking to return to the world championship ranks with a victory over Oubaali. The 31-year-old became the first three-time Olympic boxer from the U.S. when he qualified for consecutive Olympic teams in 2004, 2008 и 2012. His Olympic run came to an end against Oubaali when he lost a narrow 19-18 decision in the first round of the 2012 London Games. A southpaw from Cincinnati, Ohio, Warren won the WBA Bantamweight World Championship with a majority decision over Juan Carlos Payano in 2016 and lost the title the next year to Zhanat Zhakiyanov by split-decision.

This fight means everything for me and it’s about to be the biggest moment of my career,” Каза Уорън. “Not only am I fighting for the WBC belt, but it’s on pay-per-view. When I first won the title it was like winning the gold medal at the Olympics. After I lost the title, it made me much hungrier and I want to get it back even more. I fought this guy in the Olympics, so I’m fighting for revenge. This isn’t the Olympics. This is 12 rounds and I don’t think he’s fought anybody like me. I have no choice but to put it all on the line on January 19.

The 32-year-old Oubaali (14-0, 11 Нокаута), an unbeaten southpaw from Lens, Pas-de-Calais, Франция, has knocked out his last five opponents. His most recent KO of Luis Melendez on April 17 moved Oubaali up the ranks to position him for a world title shot. Oubaali, who is the sixth of 18 children born in France to parents who are from Morocco, twice represented France at the Olympics, qualifying in 2008 и 2012 when he defeated Warren.

Many people are waiting for this fight because it’s the second time we meet,” said Oubaali.I beat Rau’shee Warren at the 2012 London Games in a great battle. In the meantime, Rau’shee captured a world championship and lost it. Точно сега, I’m the WBC No. 1 ranked bantamweight fighter in the world. It will be a great fight in Las Vegas on January 19 and I intend to beat Rau’shee again to become the new WBC world champion.

The 25-year-old Tepora (22-0, 17 Нокаута) has steadily risen up the ranks since turning pro in 2012 and most recently captured the WBA interim featherweight crown with a ninth-round stoppage of Edivaldo Ortega in July. Representing Cebu City, Филипини, Tepora enters his U.S. debut on January 19 with stoppage wins in 11 на неговата последна 12 конкурси.

It has always been a dream to fight in the United States,” said Tepora. “I never dreamed that my first fight in the U.S. would be on a card with Senator Manny Pacquiao vs. Ейдриън Broner. I look forward to a tremendous fight on January 19 and defending my title versus former world champion Hugo Ruiz. As you all know the best rivalry in boxing is Filipino vs. Мексикански. It’s going to be a great fight.

Fighting out of Los Mochis, Синалоа, Мексико, Ruiz (38-4, 33 Нокаута) will make his featherweight debut on January 19 after picking up two victories in 2018. The 30-year-old won a super bantamweight world title with a first round stoppage of Julio Ceja in 2016, avenging his previous loss to Ceja in one of 2015’s most exciting fights. He now seeks to position himself for a world title at 126 pounds with a victory against Tepora.

I expect it to be a good fight because Tepora is undefeated and a good Filipino champion,” - каза Руиз. “But I’m ready. I don’t think he can handle my power. Отивам да го нокаутирам. I want to do my best to win the title. I’ve been watching videos of him and I’ve been training hard. I’m really focused on how to beat him. I’m still young, but I’ve got the experience to handle him in this fight.

Hosea Burton calls out Anthony Yarde for British Light Heavyweight clash


(L-R) – Head trainer Joe Gallagher & Hosea Burton

TORONTO (Декември 7, 2018) — Former British light heavyweight champion Hosea Burton has never been one to duck a fight. Фактически, he’s looking for a fight.

Burton has made his intentions known, calling out undefeated Anthony Yarde, man to man, to his face. The two recently encountered one another during Tyson Fury-Deontay Wilder fight week in Los Angeles, Калифорния, where Burton was on-hand to support his cousin, Ярост.

Let’s make the fight happen,” Burton told Yarde. “We’re both excited about it. They say I’m not up to you, but let’s get it going man.Burton has gone undefeated for two years, since suffering his lone career defeat at the hands of Frank Buglioni, a fight in which he was winning prior to a final round stoppage. Buglioni has recently retired from the sport, leaving Burton to set his sights on Yarde, rather than avenging his defeat first.

Yarde recently scored a knockout victory over Walter Sequeira, Октомври 20 in Brentwood, improving his record to 17-0 с 16 нокаута. Burton, обаче, hasn’t been impressed.

If he’s six foot, I must be six foot nine, because he’s a lot shorter than that,” Burton said of Yarde’s stature. “I would be his first live opponent. Let’s get it on.

Yarde’s world ranking would play well into Burton’s plans in 2019, which include fighting for a world title after recapturing his domestic gold.

This would be one of the biggest domestic light heavyweight fights in UK history. Everyone is already placing Yarde amongst the world’s best, but the fact is, he has to get past Hosea,” noted Adam Harris of Athlete Development and Management. “We believe Hosea is the one who’s ready to go after a world title. Let’s have it out and find out who’s right.

Burton also plans on showcasing his skills in Canada in the new year, following in the footsteps of his cousin Tyson, the lineal heavyweight champion of the world.

Both Tyson and his cousin, Хюи Фюри, fought in Canada early in their pro careers, and have held training camps in the Great White North as well. “Some of the best in the world have been coming to Canada to accelerate their careers,” Harris noted, “including Billy Joe Saunders before his most recent fights and, разбира се, Tyson in the past. We have a special relationship with the country, and the fight scene in Toronto is booming in a way we’ve never seen before. We have no doubt Hosea will be appreciated and find plenty of competition north of the border.

Simply the best….. Roy Jones, Jr.

САЩ Асоциация на завършилите Бокс, клас на 2018 Приятел

Колорадо Спрингс, Скут. (Септември 6, 2018) – Living legend Roy Jones, Jr., universally recognized as one of the greatest pound-for-pound boxers of all-time, leads a celebrated quintet of Class of 2018 inductees into the USA Boxing Alumni Association Hall of Fame.

 

 

 

Вторият ежегоден прием в Залата на славата на Асоциацията на възпитаниците на бокса в САЩ, проведено във връзка с 2018 Национални първенства за елитен и младежки бокс на САЩ и първенство за младежи и подготовка, Декември 2-8, will be held Dec. 7, в хотел Радисън (215 S. Храм Св.) в Солк Лейк Сити, Юта.

 

 

 

 

В допълнение към Jones, Випуск 2018 also includes two U.S. Olympic gold medalists and world (професионален) шампиони, Андре Уорд и Claressa Шийлдс, както и бивш национален треньор по бокс в САЩ Емануел Стюард и ветеран от американския боксов служител Том Клиъри. Последните двама ще бъдат приети посмъртно.

 

 

 

Чартърният клас, въведен миналата година, включваше Мохамед Али и Ивендър Холифийлд, както и треньори ветерани Рузвелт Сандърс и Том Култър.

 

 

 

I am honored to be selected for induction into the USA Boxing Alumni Association Hall of Fame,” Jones commented, “especially as a member of this great class with my fellow inductees.

 

 

 

Amateur boxing gave me the chance to learn life skills as well as face every other possible scenario inside of the ring.

 

 

 

Jones, По ирония на съдбата, got into boxing at the age of 11 because of Ali. “I saw Ali vs. (Joe) Фрейзърand just felt as though Ali and I had the same mental concept on life,” Jones explained.

 

 

 

Jones went on to become one of the best amateur boxers in the world, compiling a reported 121-13 рекорд, including gold medal performances at the 1984 National Junior Olympics and 1986 & 1987 National Golden Gloves Tournaments.

 

 

 

В 1988 Олимпиадата в Сеул, Южна Корея, Jones reached the championship final of the light middleweight division against Park Si-Hun, of South Korea. Jones suffered arguably the worst decision in boxing history, losing 3-2, despite outpunching his opponent, 86 към 32 landed punches, and he was forced to settle for a silver medal. Even his opponent admitted that Jones won their fight, leading the AIBA to later suspend the three judges who selected the hometown fighter as the winner.

 

 

 

How disgraceful was this decision? Jones was selected as the Val Barker Trophy winner as the best boxer of the 1988 Olympics and, due to controversy, the scoring system for Olympic boxing was changed, replacing the 20-point must system with electronic scoring.

 

 

 

I was angered,” Jones admitted, “yet promoted to prove that I was the best fighter there, and in the world, at that time.

 

 

 

Jones made his professional debut May 6, 1989, at home in Pensacola, Флорида, in a scheduled eight-round bout, in which RJJ stopped Ricky Randall във втория кръг. His long, glorious journey has produced a remarkable 66-9 (47 Нокаута) про рекорд, highlighted by nine major world titles in four different weight classes.

 

 

 

В 2003, Jones defeated Джон Руис by way of a 12-round unanimous decision to become the first former world middleweight champion to become world heavyweight title holder in more than a century.

 

 

 

The possessor of exceptional hand and foot speed, атлетизъм, движение и рефлекси, Jones went undefeated through his first 34 про битки, 22-3 (14) в световната титла битки. Against former, present or future world champions, Jones was 19-9 (8 Нокаута) and included among his victims were greats such as Бърнард Хопкинс, James Toney, Майк Маккалъм,Вини Pazienza, Върджил Hill, Antonio Tarver и Феликс Тринидад.

 

 

 

Днес, the 49-year-old Jones, technically speaking, is still an active fighter. He also has two promotional companies and gyms, located in Pensacola and Las Vegas, trains several pro boxers and serves as a color commentator for HBO Boxing. He recently opened gyms in South Africa.

 

 

 

For the past two years, Jones has hosted theFuture Stars of Boxing Tournament” в Лас Вегас, showcasing some of the best amateur boxers in the world.

 

 

 

Hosting the tournament in Las Vegas gives me the opportunity to give back to amateur boxing,” Jones explained. “It’s a great experience for the boxers and it reminds them that who they may have or still look up to, are watching them as well.

When USA Boxing alumni discuss their favorite fighters,” каза Крис tofflemire, Изпълнителен директор на Асоциацията на възпитаниците на бокса в САЩ, “Roy Jones is near the top of everyone’s list. His spectacular talent, dedication to his craft, and infectious personality make him a no-brainer to headline this year’s Hall of Fame class. He continues to give back to amateur boxing and support the next generation. Roy deserves to be celebrated for all he has accomplished, and we look forward to honoring him in December.

Russian Contenders Salamov, Idigov and Davtaev Score Impressive Victories in Grozny

All three of Salita Promotions’ Russia-based contenders, light heavyweight Umar Salamov, super middleweight Aslambek “The Hulk” Idigov and heavyweight Apti Davtaev scored impressive victories in Russia today.

 

 

 

Fighting in the main event at the Grozny City Hotel in Grozny, and live in Russia on Match TV, IBF #11- and WBO #15-rated Umar Salamov moved to 22-1, 17 KOs with a two-round KO over Denis Liebau (23-3, 21 Нокаута) of Frankfurt Germany.

 

 

 

Fighting for the WBO International Light Heavyweight Championship, Salamov came out firing in round two, landing a perfect left hook to the body that dropped Liebau for the count. The official time was 2:15.

 

 

 

WBO #14-rated super middleweight Aslambek Idigov (14-0, 6 Нокаута) destroyed former African champion Daniel Wanyonyi (27-13-2, 22 Нокаута) of Kenya in two brutal rounds. Idigov dropped Wanyonyi three times with a series of brutal right hands. The fight was waved off at 2:32. Idigov is now the WBO Asia Pacific Super Middleweight Champion.

 

 

 

Heavyweight crusher Apti Davtaev (16-0-1, 15 Нокаута) took out the Ukraine’s Evgeny German Skobenko in six dominant rounds. A serious prospect in the big man’s division, Davtaev was way too powerful for the normally capable Skobenko, pushing him around until the fateful round, where a solid mix of unanswered shots brought an end at 2:40.

 

 

 

“All three fighters did their jobs well today,” said their co-promoter, Дмитрий Salita. “They are all future champions and they looked the part today against respectable opponents. I am proud of all them. The work they have been doing at Kronk Gym is really showing through in their dominant performances.”

Russia’s Umar Salamov to Face Germany’s Denis Liebau in Explosive Light Heavyweight Clash on September 5 in Grozny

On Wednesday, Септември 5, fearless Russian light heavyweight contender Umar Salamov (21-1, 16 Нокаута) will risk his IBF #11 and WBO #15 rankings when he takes on treacherous KO puncher Denis Liebau (23-2, 21 Нокаута) of Frankfurt Germany, for the WBO International Light Heavyweight Championship.

 

 

 

The explosive 10-round showdown will be held in the Amphitheater at the five-star Grozny City Hotel in Salamov’s hometown of Grozny, Русия, and televised live in Russia on Match TV.

 

 

 

Eager for a shot at the world championship, Salamov has lately been honing his craft at the world-famous Kronk Gym in Detroit, while issuing public challenges to dangerous world champions Eleider Alvarez (WBO) and Dmitry Bivol (WBA). He was last seen in the ring in June, winning the IBF North American Championship by scoring an impressive ninth-round knockout over Brian Howard, live on Showtime.

 

 

 

“I love training in Detroit,” said Salamov. “I am excited to be back in the ring fighting for the prestigious WBO International belt. I’ve already held this title and I feel it belongs to me. I am the best light heavyweight in the world and look forward to proving that point in an impressive way on September 5, in front of my hometown fans.

 

 

 

Already known for going right at every hard-punching opponent he faces, Salamov says he’s going to be even more relentless against Liebau.

 

 

 

“I will be looking for another knockout,"Той каза. “Working with Head Trainer Javan “Sugar” Hill Stewart and my co-trainer Rick Philips has taught me so many new things. I am in incredible shape and I feel like it is impossible to beat me right now.”

 

 

 

“Umar’s world-class experience, skills and now a world class training regimen make him one of the best light heavyweights in the world,” said Salamov’s co-promoter, Дмитрий Salita (along with Kazbek Aslambekov of KA-Promotions). “Umar is facing a real experienced challenger in Denis Liebau, but I know he is poised for an impressive victory. He wants to make a statement and put the names in the division on notice. I know that he will put his skill set on display and will be impressive September 5.”

Russian light heavyweight contender Umar Salamov (21-1, 16 Нокаута) is issuing a challenge to newly crowned WBO Champ Eleider Alvarez and WBA ruler Dmitry Bivol.

 

 

 

While many of the top 175-lb fighters would prefer to avoid Alvarez and Bivol, two of the hardest punchers in the division, the 24-year-old Salamov says he’s up for the challenge any time.

 

 

 

Both Alvarez and Bivol appeared on national television over the weekend, with Alvarez scoring an upset KO over Sergei Kovalev and Bivol defending his title with a lackluster decision over Isaac Chilemba.

 

 

 

“I saw their fights and I can confidently tell you that when I get my opportunity, I will dethrone both Bivol and Alvarez,” said Salamov. “I am the best light heavyweight in the world and look forward to proving it to the boxing fans by fighting the best!"

 

 

 

IBF #11- and WBO #15-rated Salamov was last seen in June, scoring a highlight reel ninth-round knockout over Brian Howard, live on Showtime. The impressive victory won him the vacant IBF North American Championship. In his young career, he has also already won the IBO Youth and World Light Heavyweight, WBO Youth World, European and International, and the IBF East/West Europe Light Heavyweight Championships.

 

 

 

“After his US debut in June, I am very confident that it’s just a matter of time before he wins a World light Heavyweight title,” said his co-promoter, Дмитрий Salita (along with Kazbek Aslambekov of KA-Promotions). “At only 24 възраст, and with the amount of talent and experience he has, the sky is the limit for Umar in the light heavyweight division.”

 

 

 

Salamov is currently training in Detroit at the Kronk Boxing Gym. His next fight will be announced shortly.

В събота Направих пътуването на запад от моя дом в Лондон до красивия град Кардиф за популяризираното събитие на Оуен Уоткинс в Ice Arena Wales.

Събитието трябваше да бъде оглавено от дългоочаквания сблъсък за титлата от всички уелски тежки категории между Хари Майлс и Дориан Дарч, за Световната фондация по бокс (WBF) Европейско първенство в тежка категория. Битката обаче трябваше да бъде отложена, тъй като Дарч не можа да вземе участие поради отстраняване, което получи след бой на друго събитие няколко седмици преди това.

Въпреки тази неудача Оуен Уоткинс беше решил, че шоуто трябва да продължи и аз за една съм доволен, че направи този избор, тъй като в планирания андеркард участваха редица аматьори от най-висок клас, с нетърпение очаквах да гледам как правят техните професионални дебюти.

Първият беше дебютът на Карл Томас срещу Кайл Макниколас в четири кръга в полутежка надпревара.

И двамата момчета започнаха наистина добре да показват своите съответни боксови умения.

С напредването на рунда Томас засили натиска, подкрепяйки McNicholas върху въжетата и започна да оставя да рипне с изстрели по тялото и главата на Liverpudlian.

Тъй като рундът напредваше в последната минута, Томас попадна напукано право в главата, което разтърси Макнихолас до основи, Томас последва с ляво към тялото, последвано почти веднага с голямо ляво към тялото, което изпрати McNicholas до платното.

Изненадващо Макниколас направи преброяването, те със сигурност ги отглеждат здраво в Мърсисайд, тъй като това беше злобно тяло, изстреляно точно под долното ребро, просто не виждате хората да стават след тези толкова често.

При рестартирането Томас се върна право в атаката, първо изстрелва твърд удар, последван от още едно жилещо отляво до тялото и двойно дясно към главата.

Томас поддържаше натиска, пиперване на McNicholas с нечестива комбинация тяло-глава, последвано от още един добър твърд удар, за да задържи McNicholas в неутрален ъгъл, преди да остави да се разкъса със сензационно ляво кука към тялото, който изпрати McNicholas за втори път.

Реферът Роджър Райли започна броенето и когато току-що достигна осемте точки за броене, Макниколас започна да се опитва да се издигне без успех, не оставяйки на съдията друга възможност, освен да махне на боя, точно когато камбаната звънна, за да сигнализира края на първия рунд.

Имам удоволствието да кажа, че Макниколас беше напълно добре и скоро се изправи на крака.

Последните ми мисли за тази конкретна битка са; може да е продължило само един кръг, но какъв пропукващ кръг беше.

След това вижте как Капер Дуджински прави своя дебют за професионалиста срещу Майкъл Кели от Белфаст в четири кръга в супер полусредна категория.

Точно от разстояние Дудзински застана зад сериозно силния си удар и започна да контролира производството с бързи ръце и твърди двойни удари.

Кели не е халба, не от удар от далечно разстояние, той е толкова разумен, колкото идват те, но дори той трябваше да се съгласи да заеме отбранителна позиция и търпеливо да изчака всяка възможност, колкото и да е стройна, да се противопостави, които, честно казано, бяха малко и много.

Дудзински впечатли сериозно срещу Кели и има фантастично бъдеще в спорта.

Може да е бил дебютът му, но въз основа на представянето му в събота нощ, срещу бивш истински претендент за титлата, Предполагам, че той ще стигне чак до върха и също го заслужава, всеки, който може да задържи Кели на задния крак по начина, по който Дудзински е правил почти всичките четири рунда, без съмнение е нещо специално.

Не ме разбирайте погрешно, Кели пусна няколко крекинг изстрела, но сензационно бързата скорост на ръката на Дудзински и превъзходната защита защитиха тези възможности до минимум.

Приятно малко докосване от Кели в края на последния рунд, след ход на реакция „матричен стил“, това почти не му позволяваше да докосне ръкавица надолу, обаче, за негово раздразнение той получи преброяване от съдията Крис Кели, въпреки че Кели беше убеден, че всъщност е избегнал ръкавицата му да докосва платното, но вместо да стои там и да протестира, той падна и продължи да прави лицеви опори през броенето, за да покаже неодобрението си, за голяма радост на публиката.

След четири брилянтни рунда не беше изненадващо, че именно Дудзински държи ръката си нагоре – официалният резултат показа, че Дудзински отбелязва своята първа професионална победа с a 40-35 точки марж.

Следващ беше Бен Макгивърн срещу Бен Хау в четири кръга в състезание в тежка категория.

Какво бой, McGivern главно ръководи производството, принуждавайки Хаф към задния крак, както и въжетата за добър парче от първата строфа. Хау може да е бил в защита в голяма част от първата, но когато се появиха възможностите, той ги взе със стил.

Това беше практически пълен обрат във Втори кръг, с контрол по борба с Hough и поставяне на McGivern на задния крак, и въжета, подобно на начина, по който шотландецът подхвана първия рунд.

Третата строфа беше много по-близка авантюра, толкова ми беше трудно да ги разделя, точки мъдър.

Четвъртият започна горе-долу като третият завърши, и двамата протагонисти ще се справят с чук и щипки, но с напредването на рунда Макгивърн засили темпото, за да осигури не само рунда, но и победата.

След четири сензационни рунда на всички действия, както раздадох по-горе, Макгивърн излезе победител, съдията Роджър Райли вкара отличната надпревара 39-37 в полза на шотландеца.

След двубоя и двамата боксьори се съгласиха на реванш, за който съм бил уверен, че е вероятно да се проведе в Ливърпул на 8 септември – поставете датата в дневника си, това е битка, която никой не бива да пропуска!

Предпоследния двубой за нощта вижте Blackwood, Южен Уелс’ Лиам Прийс срещу много, много късно заместване Pentrefoelas, Северен Уелс’ Стефан Хюз в изцяло уелски конкурс.

Какъв коркер беше тази битка, това беше трилър за всички действия от началото до последния звънец.

Като се има предвид, че Прейс имаше значителен недостатък в теглото, с който да се справи, той наистина се съгласи, отвеждайки битката при по-опитния си, и по-тежък, противник.

Прийс боксира уверено не само когато е в атака, но и когато се защитава срещу точните екзоцети, стартирани от Хюз.

Прийс беше впечатляващ през цялото време, и съм сигурен, че това не е изненадало никого в ледената арена Уелс, когато резултатите от рефера Крис Кели бяха прочетени като 40-36 точки победа за Южен Уелс Lad.

Финалната професионална битка през нощта изпрати високо оценената бивша аматьорска звезда Порт Талбот Леви Грифитс срещу Скот Макинтайър от Ливърпул.

Грифитс е толкова хлъзгав, класният младеж започна добре и нанесе няколко жилещи изстрела, което принуди Макинтайър да премине към „план Б“ рано в опит да запази вътрешността си, за да попречи на уелсеца да изстреля големите си изстрели.

Планът на McIntyre B може да не е бил красив, но момче, момче беше много ефективно.

След първоначалното ‘отворено’ период, което позволи на хлъзгавия уелсец да постигне добро ниво на успех, по-голямата част от битката можеше да се проведе в телефонна кутия.

Макинтайър очевидно нямаше намерение да даде на Грифитс каквато и да е възможност да се разкъса с големи изстрели, просто го държеше вързан през цялото време, понякога с фал, толкова много, че след многобройни предупреждения за задържане или нечупване, когато се каже, съдията Роджър Райли отне точка, обаче дори това приспадане на точки нямаше да попречи на човекът от Ливърпул да осигури победата, официалният резултат е 39-36.

Трябва да се каже,, макар и лично разочарован, че европейската битка за титлата на Miles-Darch WBF не се проведе, промоутърът Оуен Уоткинс беше събрал такава карта за поддръжка от най-висок клас, че аз, както и съм сигурен, че всички останали присъстващи са имали своя пугилистичен апетит добре и наистина заситен от предлаганата тарифа и очакваме следващото му повишение, който ще се проведе в Центъра за свободно време Cwrt Herbert в Нийт на 22септември.
