BELFAST (Sierpień 14, 2018) – Lineal heavyweight champion Tyson Fury and former two-time heavyweight title challenger Francesco Pianeta faced off on Tuesday in Belfast during the final press conference for their 10-round heavyweight bout this Saturday from Windsor Park. The second comeback fight of the former unified champion will stream live exclusively to U.S. audiences on the SHOWTIME Boxing Facebook page and SHOWTIME Sports YouTube channel beginning at 3:30 p.m. I/12:30 p.m. PT (please note new start time). SHOWTIME will air an encore presentation later that evening on SHOWTIME EXTREME® (10 p.m. ET / PT).

 

 

 

Fury vs. Pianeta will serve as the chief support of Carl Frampton’s interim featherweight title defense against undefeated contender Luke Jackson on the pitch at Windsor Park, where an expected 30,000 fans will witness the first boxing event at the home of Northern Irish football.

 

 

 

Studio coverage of SHOWTIME BOXING INTERNATIONAL from New York begins at 3:30 p.m. ET/12:30 p.m. PT with host Brian Custer and Hall of Fame analyst Steve Farhood providing pre-and post-fight analysis. Live coverage from Belfast, which will be provided by BT Sport, will begin with the Pianeta ring walk shortly after 3:30. U.K. sportscaster John Rawling will call the action with Barry Jones providing analysis, and Ronald McIntosh conducting post-fight interviews for Fury-Pianeta.

 

 

 

The former IBF, WBA and WBO champion Fury (26-0, 19 KO) returned to the ring in June and will fight for the second time in less than 75 days following a nearly three-year layoff. Prior to his extended hiatus, the 6-foot-9 Fury established himself as the premier heavyweight boxer in the world by becoming the first man to defeat Wladimir Klitschko in more than 11 lat.

 

 

 

Pianeta (35-4-1, 21 KO), a 6-foot-5 southpaw who fights out of Germany, has twice challenged for the heavyweight world title. Pianeta faced then-unified champion Wladimir Klitschko in 2013 and lost in a bid for a secondary title against Ruslan Chagaev in 2015.

 

 

 

Here’s what the fighters had to say at Europa Hotel in Belfast on Tuesday:

 

Tyson Fury

“The old Tyson Fury is gone. The Tyson Fury from three years ago and beyond is finished. Spojrzmy prawdzie w oczy, we all move forward in life with age and experiences and I’m not looking to dwell on the past. I’m looking to live for today and improve on who I am tomorrow. The new Tyson Fury is here now and my promise is to put on a good fight. Whether that’s better or worse than the old Tyson Fury, we’ll find out on Saturday night.

 

 

 

“What you’re likely to see from me on Saturday is a heavyweight Sugar Ray Leonard. Anything less is a failure.

 

 

 

“I do want to win a world title again so I have to raise my game. I’ve been out of the ring for three years nearly. It’s an uphill battle to lose the weight I’ve lost. It’s been challenging and a long, hard battle to get back to where I am.

 

 

 

“I study my heavyweights and I know Francesco has fought some very good men. He had a very good winning spree, he was 28-0 when he fought Klitschko. I’m not underestimating Francesco. I know he’s a very big, strong fellow and he knows if he wins this fight then he can go on to fight (Deontay) Wilder instead of me. It’s all to play for.

 

 

 

“In heavyweight boxing, if you take your eye off the goal for ten seconds you’re out of there. Wiem, czego się spodziewać, I expect him to bring his ‘A game’ and he’s going to try to knock me out because that’s what they all do. Mam nadzieję, że, he’s not successful and we put on a great show and entertain the fans.

 

 

 

“If I come through this, then Wilder has a chance to fight me for the lineal championship. I’m not the one who gets the chance to fight him. Spojrzmy prawdzie w oczy, he hasn’t really fought anybody. On ma 40 fights and it is what it is. We’re not here to talk about Wilder at all. It may as well be a million years in the future, I’ve got to concentrate on this man in front of me. I’m sure he wants to take my glory away from me.

 

 

 

“I’ve made all the right sacrifices. I trained really well, ate right, slept well and I had four or five sparring partners that were all southpaws. If I do what I think I can do, then I’ll impress, put on a good show and win the fight. If I don’t do what I think I can do, then I’ll get chinned in about ten seconds and it will be, ‘See you later Tyson Fury and hello Francesco Pianeta.’

 

 

 

“Southpaws are a lot more awkward because there’s less of them in the division. You don’t get too much work with southpaws other than when you’re fighting with them. It’s hard to get southpaws to spar in training because there aren’t many heavyweight southpaws around the world. But I do have one interesting fact, every southpaw amateur or professional I’ve ever faced I’ve knocked out. That’s not good for Francesco.

 

 

 

“To be a two-time heavyweight champion is all right. It’s not great because there’s been plenty. To be a three-time heavyweight champion, it’s been done before. So I think I want to set a precedent of being a five-time heavyweight champion without losing a fight. That’s my goal. I always aim for the stars and set big targets.

 

 

 

“If I can beat Francesco Pianeta on Saturday night, I’ve beaten another boxer. Big deal. But if he beats me, he’s going on to something very big. It would be life-changing for him. It I can’t beat Francesco, then I’m going nowhere.

 

 

 

“I think I’m the greatest heavyweight that’s ever been born, so I should handle Francesco Pianeta. And whoever else is out there, Deontay Wilder, Anthony Joshua, all the bums out there.

 

 

 

“It’s very easy to win all the belts back. I’ve only got to beat two bums, w zasadzie. Wilder and Joshua and that’s it. They both haven’t got a brain cell between them so it shouldn’t be too hard for a great boxer like myself.”

 

Ben Davison, Fury’s Trainer

 

 

“Everything is good with Tyson. It’s good that he’s getting straight into the ring again. It’s been a good progression since the last fight and everything is perfect. We’re just ready for Saturday night. You can’t do anything more from now.

 

 

 

“He’s lost a good amount of weight since the last fight. Do mnie, there’s only a certain level of fitness that you can get to and Tyson runs on two very good engines anyway. There’s never been any worry with that.”

 

Francesco Pianeta

 

 

“I’m going to give my best and I’m looking forward to the fight. It’s an honor for me to box in front of such an audience.

 

 

 

“I have a high opinion on Tyson. I was very impressed with his win over Klitschko, I rate him very highly. He says that he’s knocked out every southpaw he’s ever faced, but we’ll see if he is able to do that Saturday night.”

Three-time Irish Olympian PaddyThe LeprechaunBarnes challenges World Boxing Council (WBC) flyweight world champion CristoferEl LatigoRosales in the 12-round co-featured event.

Canadian boxing fans are going to want to tune into Super Channel this Saturday as we bring them yet another incredible major boxing showcase,” said Troy Wassill, Director of Programming for Super Channel. “With Frampton vs. Jackson as the main event and Rosales vs. Barnes as the co-feature, not to mention the highly anticipated return of Tyson Fury, all set in legendary Windsor Park, this is a high-caliber, fully-stacked card that any boxing fan is not going to want to miss.

Frampton (25-1, 14 KO), fighting at home in Belfast, is a former World Boxing Association (WBA) featherweight and super bantamweight champion, as well as International (IBF) super bantamweight world title holder, który jest 5-1 w światowych walk tytuł, 7-1 versus present or former world champions. Frampton has defeated world champions Steve Molitora native CanadianKiko Martinez (dwa razy), Hugo Fidel Cazares, Scott QUIGG, Leo Santa Cruz and Nonito Donaire.

 

 

If he performs to his best and I perform to my best,” Frampton said of Jackson, “I’m knocking him out, simple as that. I’m due a knockout. I haven’t knocked anyone out in quite a while. He sees that he’s a complete underdog and there’s no pressure on him. People are writing him off. That can help fighters. When they have no expectations on their shoulders, they can go and perform out of their skin.

 

 

 

I’m certainly not taking Luke Jackson for granted in the slightest. I’ve done that before against Alejandro Gonzalez and I ended up on my backside twice in the first round. I’ve learned from that fight. I’m the better fighter and I feel fit and sharp. I believe I’m one of the best supported fighters on the planet and that’s down to the passionate Northern Ireland sports fans.

 

 

 

I want to be world champion again. If I lose this fight my career is over, that’s the truth, but I’m not intending to lose it. Victory over Jackson sets up a potentially sizzling showdown with another fighter who has a massive fan base, Josh Warrington, the new IBF featherweight champion from Leeds. Lips are already being licked in anticipation of that one.

 

 

 

WATCH A BONUS FRAMPTON FIGHT, AVAILABLE FRIDAY, Sierpień 17 ON SUPER CHANNEL ON DEMAND, TO GET READY FOR THE BIG FIGHT

 

 

 

The reigning WBO Oriental featherweight champion, Jackson (16-0, 7 KO) represented his native Australia in the 2012 Igrzyska Olimpijskie. The upset-minded Jackson believes Frampton is finished.

 

 

Across the board,” the outspoken Australian spoke about Frampton, “but I don’t think he is as good as he once was. In the first fight against Leo Santa Cruz he boxed out of his skin and deserved to win, but he hasn’t looked the same since. Carl is a very good fighter who does everything good, but I don’t think he does anything great. Szanuję go jako wojownika, I respect him as a man, but I am coming to beat him, not coming over to be friends.

 

 

 

I don’t know if he wants me to call him a Hall of Fame fighter or the greatest, but I don’t think he is. He is very beatable, and I think I can beat him, simple as that.

 

 

 

Rosales (27-3, 18 KO), fighting out of Nicaragua, will be making the first world title defense of the title he captured last April in Japan, when he stopped Daigo Higa in the ninth round. Rosales is the cousin of Roman Gonzalez, the former pound-4-pound king of boxing.

 

 

The reigning WBO Intercontinental flyweight champion, Barnes (5-0, 1 KO) will also be fighting at home in Belfast in front of his passionate fan base. One of the greatest Irish amateur boxers of all time, Barnes will be fighting for a world title in only his sixth professional fight. He won two bronze medals (2008 & 2012) in his three trips to the Olympics, as well as gold in the 2019 European Championships.

 

 

 

This is the fight that defines my boxing career,” Barnes claimed. “There were great achievements as an amateur including Olympic bronze medals, but that is only third place in the world, który jest wielki. To be the best in the world at your weight, the WBC world championship is definitely the one to win. I did great as an amateur and people will remember me for what I’ve achieved, but a world professional title is what I really want. I would swap everything I did as an amateur to win this fight.

 

 

 

Two other exciting fights on the “Frampton vs. Jackson” karta, in addition to the previously mentioned main event and co-feature, will air in Canada exclusively on Super Channel.

W sobotę I sprawiła, że ​​podróż na zachód od mojego domu w Londynie do pięknego miasta Cardiff dla Owen Watkins promować imprezę w Ice Arena Walii.

Impreza miała zostać zatytułowała przez wiele przewidywanego wszystkich Welsh Heavyweight Title zderzenie Hari Miles i Dorian Darch, dla World Boxing Foundation (WBF) Mistrzostwa Europy wagi ciężkiej. walka miała jednak zostać przełożone jako Darch był w stanie uczestniczyć z powodu zawieszenia otrzymał po walce na innym wypadku kilka tygodni przed.

Pomimo tego niepowodzenia Owen Watkins zdecydował, że show must go on a ja jeden jestem zadowolony uczynił tego wyboru, jak planowanym undercard biorące szereg najlepszych amatorów klasy I zostały doczekać oglądania podejmowaniu debiuty zawodowe.

Najpierw był debiutujący Carl Thomas kontra Kyle McNicholas w czwartej rundy półciężkiej Contest.

Obaj chłopcy zaczęli naprawdę dobrze wykazując ich odpowiednie umiejętności bokserskie.

Ponieważ okrągły postępowała Thomas podszedł ciśnienie, kopii McNicholas na linach i zaczął pozwalając rip z ujęć do ciała i głowy Liverpudlian.

Ponieważ okrągły postęp w ostatniej minucie Thomas wylądował pękanie prawo do głowy, który wstrząsnął McNicholas do rdzenia, Thomas następnie do góry z lewej do ciała następuje niemal natychmiast z wielkim lewej do ciała, który wysłał McNicholas na płótnie.

Zaskakująco McNicholas wykonany licznik, na pewno je hodować twardy na Merseyside, jako że było to błędne strzał ciała tuż poniżej dolnego żebra, po prostu nie widać ludzie wstać po tych, które często.

Na restarcie Thomas poszedł prosto na atak, po pierwsze wystrzelenie szczepionkę sztywny po innej kłucie lewej do ciała i podwójnym prawa do głowy.

Thomas utrzymane ciśnienie, przyprawiając McNicholas z szelmowskim połączeniu korpus głowicy następuje kolejny dobry sztywny szczepionki do tyłu McNicholas do neutralnego narożnika przed pozwalając rip z sensacyjnym lewym hakiem do ciała, który wysłał McNicholas w dół po raz drugi.

Sędzia Roger Riley zaczęła liczyć i jak to właśnie osiągnęła punkt osiem licznika McNicholas zaczął próbować rosnąć bez powodzenia, pozostawiając sędziemu żadnej opcji, ale na fali walki off tak jak dzwon bił aby zasygnalizować koniec pierwszej rundy.

Cieszę się, że McNicholas był doskonale OK i nie dostać się na nogi tuż po.

Moje ostatnie przemyślenia na temat tej konkretnej walce są; może mieć tylko jedna runda trwała ale co to był okrągły pękanie.

Następna w kolejce zobaczyć Kacper Dudziński dokonywania jego pro debiut przeciwko Belfastu Michael Kelly w czwartej rundzie konkursu Super półśredniej.

Od samego off Dudziński dostał za jego poważnie silnej szczepionki i rozpoczął kontrolę postępowania z szybkich rąk i sztywnych podwójnych szturcha.

Kelly ma kubek, Nie przez długie ujęcie, On jest tak bystry jak przychodzą, ale nawet on musiał przyznać się do zajęcia stanowiska w obronie i cierpliwie czekać na każdą okazję, Nieważne, jak smukły, w celu przeciwdziałania, który szczerze mówiąc były nieliczne.

Dudziński poważnie wrażeniem przeciwko Kelly i ma wspaniałą przyszłość w sporcie.

To może być jego debiut, ale na podstawie jego wyników w sobotę noc, przeciwko byłemu prawdziwego tytuł challenger, Sądzę, że on przejść całą drogę na szczyt i zasługuje na to zbyt, ktoś, kto może utrzymać Kelly na stopę z powrotem drogę Dudziński zrobił dla praktycznie pełnych czterech rundach jest bez wątpienia coś specjalnego.

Nie zrozumcie mnie źle Kelly wylądował jakieś pęknięcia strzałów, ale rewelacyjnie szybka prędkość ręka Dudziński i wspaniałe obrony przechowywane te możliwości do minimum.

Miły mały akcent z Kelly późno w finale, w wyniku „styl” macierz ruchu reakcyjnej, że niemal uniemożliwiła mu dotknięcie rękawicy dół, jednak, ku jego irytacji otrzymał liczyć od sędzia Chris Kelly, Kelly, choć był przekonany, że on rzeczywiście unikał jego rękawicy dotykając płótna, ale zamiast stojąc tam i protestują opadł w dół i zaczął robić pompek całej liczby, aby pokazać swoją dezaprobatę, ku uciesze tłumu.

Po czterech rundach genialnych to nie było zaskoczeniem, że to Dudziński którego ręka odbyła się w górę – oficjalny wynik pokazał Dudziński zabicie swojego panieńskiego zwycięstwo przez pro 40-35 Marża punkty.

Następna w kolejce była Ben McGivern kontra Ben Hough w czwartej rundzie konkursu Cruiserweight.

Jaka walka, McGivern uwypukleń głównie postępowanie, zmuszając Hough do stóp z powrotem, a także lin na dobry kawałek pierwszej zwrotce. Hough mogło być w defensywie dla dobrej części pierwszej, ale kiedy pojawiły się możliwości wziął je w stylu.

To było praktycznie kompletnym Zwrot w drugiej rundzie, z Hough zapasy kontrolę i oddanie McGivern na stopę z powrotem, i lin, w podobny sposób Szkot miał bossed pierwszą rundę.

Trzecia zwrotka była znacznie bliżej walczył sprawa, tak więc trudno je rozdzielić, punkty mądry.

Czwarty zaczęło się mniej więcej jako trzeci zakończony, z obu bohaterów będzie dla niego młotkiem i szczypcami, ale jak runda postępowała McGivern zintensyfikować tempo na tyle, aby nie tylko zabezpieczyć rundę, ale także zwycięstwo.

Po czterech rundach sensacyjne wszystkich działań, jak rozdawał powyżej, było McGivern że wyszedłem zwycięsko, Sędzia Roger Riley zabicie doskonałą konkurs 39-37 na korzyść Szkota.

Po walce obaj bokserzy zgodził się na rewanż, które zostały rzetelnie informowany jest prawdopodobnie odbędzie się w Liverpoolu 08 września – umieścić datę w kalendarzu jest to walka nie należy przegapić!

Przedostatnia walka wieczoru zobaczyć Blackwood, południowa Walia’ Liam Preece kontra bardzo, bardzo późno Pentrefoelas zamienne, Północna Walia’ Steffan Hughes w konkursie wszystkim Welsh.

Co corker ta walka była, to było wszystko thriller akcja od początku aż do ostatecznego dzwon.

Biorąc pod uwagę Preece miał poważną wadę wagi do czynienia z, on naprawdę poszedł do niej, podejmowanie walki na jego bardziej doświadczony, i cięższe, przeciwnik.

Preece zapakowane pewnie nie tylko wtedy, gdy do ataku, ale także podczas obrony przed punktowych dokładnych exocets uruchomionych przez Hughesa.

Preece była imponująca całym, i jestem pewien, że nie dziwi w Ice Arena Walii gdy Scorecard Sędzia Chris Kelly został odczytany jako A 40-36 Punkty zwycięstwa dla South Wales Lad.

Ostateczna pro walka wieczoru pestki wysoko oceniana była gwiazda amatorskich Port Talbot Levi Griffiths kontra Liverpoolu Scott McIntyre.

Griffiths jest tak zręczny, szykowny młodzik zaczął dobrze i wylądował jakieś kłucie strzały, który zmuszony McIntyre, aby przełączyć na „plan B” na początku, próbując zachować od wewnątrz, aby zapobiec Walijczyk z coraz swoje wielkie strzały off.

McIntyre jest Plan B nie może być dość, ale chłopiec och chłopiec był bardzo skuteczny.

Po początkowym „otwarty’ okres, co pozwoliło na plamach Walijczyk, aby osiągnąć poziom dobrego sukcesu, większość walki mogło mieć miejsce w budce telefonicznej.

McIntyre wyraźnie nie miał zamiaru dając Griffiths żadnej okazji, aby pozwolić rip jakichkolwiek dużych ujęć, on po prostu ciągle mu zawiązał całym, czasami nieprzyjemnych środków, tak bardzo, że po licznych ostrzeżeń dla gospodarstwa czy nie łamie, gdy powiedział, Sędzia Roger Riley odejmowane punkt, Jednak nawet, że punkt odliczenie nie zamierza zapobiec człowieka Liverpool od zabezpieczania zwycięstwo, oficjalny wynik byt 39-36.

Muszę powiedzieć,, podczas gdy osobiście rozczarowany, że Miles-Darch tytuł WBF Europejska walka nie odbyła się, promotor Owen Watkins złożyliśmy taka karta wsparcie najwyższej klasy, że, jak jestem pewien, wszyscy w obecności mieli bokserski Apetyt dobrze i zaspokojony przez taryfy w ofercie i czekamy na jego kolejnej promocji, który odbędzie się w Cwrt Herbert Leisure Centre w Neath na 22nd września.

McConville Set For Tough First Title Shot, Liverpool Man To Face India’s Goyat

 

Promoter Kyle Gallagher announced earlier today that unbeaten Welterweight prospect Jonny McConville, is set to challenge Chandigarh India’s Neeraj Goyat for the Professional Boxing Council (PBC) International Silver Welterweight Championship, at the Jubilee Sports Bank in Liverpool on Saturday 8th September 2018.

 

 

 

 

McConville is in fine form and comes into this Championship contest off a first round stoppage win over Belfast’s Michael Kelly back in March this year, his third stoppage win in as many contests, the other stoppage victories being over Marty Kayes in December 2017 and Will Cairns in September 2017.

 

 

 

 

However McConville is in no doubt that this will be the toughest fight of his young career to date, his esteemed opponent on the8th September is not only far more experienced but also Championship experienced, having been crowned the World Boxing Council (WBC) Asian Boxing Council Welterweight Champion following his victory over Nelson Gulpe in New Delhi back in May 2015 and successive successful defences against Ben Kite in New Delhi back in October 2016 and then against Allan Tanada in Mumbai in August 2017.

 

 

 

 

By time Goyat faces McConville he may have successfully defended his title for a third time, as he is currently in camp preparing to defend his title in Canada later this month.

 

 

 

 

His esteemed opponent’s Championship successes do not seem to have fazed McConville one iota, jak on wyraźnie, kiedy mówił wcześniej.

 

 

 

 

I’m very grateful for this opportunity it’s something we have been working and training very hard towards.

 

 

 

 

I am very excited to fight for my first title and to put on a show against such a decorated and experienced opponent as Goyat.

Freeman Battles Through Injury To Secure Victory In Liverpool

W sobotni wieczór, whilst most British boxing fans were either at the Manchester Arena or watching BT Sport as Tyson Fury made his long awaited return to the ring, a large number of local boxing fans still made the pilgrimage to the Jubilee Sports Bank in Liverpool for local promoter Kyle Gallagher’s latest offering.

 

Over the past few years Gallagher has built himself a very good reputation for putting on quality shows, one where the local fans know they are in for a great night out and watching well matched all action fights featuring local prospects and on Saturday normal service resumed.

 

Headlining the show was local unbeaten prospect Martin Freeman, against seriously tough opposition in Latvia’s Dmitrijs Ovsjannikovs.

 

On his last appearance, on a Gallagher promoted show back in March, Ovsjannikovs secured victory over Freeman’s gym mate Mitchell Walsh, via a second round TKO, which added an extra bit of spice to this particular bout.

 

The opening round see Freeman on the front foot, Ovsjannikovs seemingly content to counter for the majority of the round, with the occasional attacking foray whenever the opportunity arose.

 

Initially it was more of the same in round two, however as the round progressed Ovsjannikovs began to get a bit busier, actively taking the fight to the Liverpudlian, but all said and done it was still Freeman’s round.

 

Freeman’s movement in the third was poor, he was limping at times, and Ovsjannikovs clearly noticed this and started to be more assertive in his approach, so much so that often he would corral Freeman in a corner before letting rip with a flurry of shots.

 

Freeman’s corner were screaming at their charge to get out of the corner, can’t blame them as it was this tactic by Ovsjannikovs that led to their man Walsh being stopped by the Latvian back in March.

 

Freeman made it through the round, but now was just the one round up as the third was clearly Ovsjannikovs’.

 

Freeman’s corner worked frantically on his leg during the break, but when the opening bell for the round rang it was clear to all that the injury was really troubling the Liverpudlian.

 

The fourth mirrored the third, Ovsjannikovs controlling the proceedings, but Freeman dug in deep and survived the round. Again in the break Freeman’s team worked hard on their charge.

 

With the scores equal going into the fifth Ovsjannikovs went on the offensive once more, however Freeman, whilst still limping, didn’t just settle for countering, oh no, he decided if it was do or die and started to plant his feet once more and let rip with big shots, so much so that Ovsjannikovs reverted to a defensive approach and countering at times, much to the relief of Freeman’s corner I would think.

 

The sixth and final round was a stormer, again Ovsjannikovs went hard on the attack in an attempt to back Freeman into a corner, however the Liverpudlian wasn’t having any of it and some excellent toe to toe slugging ensued, it was a thrilling final round, control switching back and forth throughout until the final bell.

 

After six hard fought rounds Referee Chris Kelly’s scorecard read 58-56 in favour of Martin Freeman.

 

The penultimate bout of the night sees Widnes, Cheshire’s Jamie Oldfield, in action against Belfast’s Marty Kayes, in a four round Welterweight contest.

 

Oldfield came into the fight off a first round stoppage win over Edgars Sazanovics on his pro debut back in March, whilst Kayes, a well- known and always busy opponent, came into the fight off the back of two excellent points victories in April, his first wins since July 2016, some sixteen fights previously.

 

Right from the off it was Oldfield that took the fight to Kayes, the Irishman though stood his ground and countered effectively and so began a fantastic all action round.

 

It was a great round, you just couldn’t take your eyes off the fight for a second as these two warriors went to war, both digging deep into their arsenals of shots, each time one of them seemed to be taking control, the other would counter with equal force to wrestle control.

 

Great round just couldn’t split them, definitely a drawn round in my eyes.

 

More of the same in the second and third, although in both Oldfield seemed to just about secure the rounds due to more effective attacks. I must just mention a couple of exchanges, where Oldfield and Kayes went toe to toe exchanging double handed combinations, both guys letting rip with 10-12 punch combinations at the same time, Wow, really enjoyed those.

 

The fourth and Final round was more or less a mirror image of the first, again I couldn’t split them, score-wise, and was mightily chuffed that I had scored it the same as the Referee Chris Kelly – 40-38 in favour of Jamie Oldfield

 

Another local debuting fighter, David Tayor, was next up, against Latvia’s Vladimirs Slikovs in a four round Super Middleweight contest.

 

Both protagonists came out hard and fast, both battling hard for centre ground, what’s more it was clear that neither had any intention of backing down for a second.

 

Throughout the first round it was hard to split the two, each time either let rip with a shot the other countered in similar fashion, no surprise that even Referee Chris Kelly couldn’t split them on his scorecard.

 

Round two was once again an all action round, Slikovs maybe being more on the front foot, however even though Taylor was having to defend more often, it was he that landed the most shots, more importantly the most telling shots.

 

Więcej takie same w trzecim, with Taylor clearly winning the round, however the fourth, whilst similar to the previous rounds, except now Slikovs was able to get his range right and land some big shots.

 

After four all action rounds Referee Chris Kelly’s scorecards showed just how close this bout was, as they read 39-38 to David Taylor.

 

Following the interval local debuting lad Steven Sunners faced Latvian Eduard Belas in a four round Middleweight contest.

 

Right from the off Sunners went on the attack, however Belas is as savvy as they come and used his experience to keep Sunners from landing a serious shot initially.

 

However Sunners kept calm and used his jab to great effect to fashion a good opening early in the round and landing a cracking body-shot.

 

Belas changed tactics and went on the offensive. Sunners didn’t seem that concerned and just kept jabbing to the head, forcing Belas to keep his guard high.

 

After a few more exchanges, Sunners threw a neat combination, creating just enough of an opening to slip in another good solid shot, this time with the required effect of sending the Latvian to the canvas.

 

Belas made the count, immediately after the restart Sunners was all over the Latvian like a rash, letting shots off whenever an opening presented itself.

 

It wasn’t that long until another chink in the Latvian’s armour appeared, Sunners reacted immediately and again sent Belas to the canvas.

 

Belas again made the count and defended well until the end of the round.

 

Round two started in much the same way as the previous round ended, with Sunners in full flow and Belas covering up and defending with an occasional shot of his own.

 

Jednak, after about fifteen seconds or so Sunners landed a big right hand that sent the Latvian heavily to the canvas, Referee Chris Kelly immediately waved the fight off, he didn’t even start the count, instead summoned the medical team to enter the ring and attend to the stricken Belas.

 

I’m pleased to say Belas was OK and when he eventually rose to his feet, received a warm round of applause from all in attendance.

 

Official time of the stoppage was just 22 seconds of the second round.

 

Just prior to the interval the fifth fight of the night pitted local lad Craig Kennerdale against Prestwick, Scotland’s Leon Roberts in a four round Welterweight contest.

 

This much anticipated contest between two highly rated young fighters was expected to be a cracker, but it turned out to be much more than that it was a sensational fight between two equally matched warriors.

 

It reminded me very much of the classic Battle Royale between Carl Frampton and Ian Bailey in Belfast a few years back, after that one the entire crowd at the King’s Hall were on their feet applauding both warriors, and it comes as no surprise that after their fight on Saturday night that Kennerdale and Roberts also received a standing ovation from the crowd in Liverpool, boy oh boy they deserved it one hundred percent.

 

As with Frampton-Bailey, it was non-stop action throughout, Kennerdale and Roberts fought magnificently for every second of each round.

 

These two serious talents really went for it throughout the contest, control switching between them with such regularity you just couldn’t take your eyes of the fight for a second.

 

On many occasions this battle had the highly vocal fans standing and applauding the action, especially a couple of double handed exchanges, where both protagonists not only matched each other punch for punch but also flowing combination for combination.

 

Referee Chris Kelly scored the contest 40-37 in favour of Kennerdale, which to be honest whilst the correct result just doesn’t reflect just how close every single round was.

 

Loved every second of this fight, it really was something special, so if you get the chance try and watch the video, which I have been told will be on YouTube later this week, definitely well worth watching.

 

Have to say this was my first choice of Fight of the Night, just as you would have already read above there was definitely more than one contender for that accolade.

 

The fourth bout of the night pitted Bradley Muldoon against debuting David Calveley in a four rounder.

 

Prior to the fight there was quite a bit of talk about this match-up on social media, apparently they had fought twice previously, word was that it was the debuting Calveley that had won both.

 

Right from the opening bell it was Calveley that went straight on the attack, Muldoon initially covered up but soon began to utilise his jab effectively to prevent the hard charging Calveley to corral him against the ropes.

 

Throughout the round it was Calveley virtually bossed the round from start to finish, effectively keeping Muldoon on the back foot.

 

More of the same in the second and third, but the fourth was a much more closely fought round, one in which Muldoon held his own.

 

After four rounds of action Referee scored the contest 40-37 in favour of Calveley, however that wasn’t the end of the matter, as Muldoon protested that it was supposed to be a six rounder and called for the fight to be declared a no-contest. Apparently the promoters running sheet in the changing room showed it as a six rounder not the four as announced at the beginning of the fight and listed by the commission on the schedule.

 

Liverpool’s Dean Ferreira versus Latvia’s Andrejs Konovalovs in a four round Super Featherweight contest was the third fight on the card.

 

Ferreira seemed determined to make a big statement in this fight, coming out hard and fast right from the opening bell and letting rip with big shots, Konovalovs initially covered up, but soon realised he’d have to fight his way out of danger and proceeded to do just that.

 

Ferreira though is as tough as they come and he soon wrestled back control and backed his Latvian foe back onto the ropes before letting rip with fast double handed shots to send Konovalovs down within the first thirty seconds or so.

 

Konovalovs made it to his feet almost immediately, on the restart Ferreira went straight back on the attack.

 

Konovalovs got behind his jab in an effort to keep the hard charging Liverpudlian at bay, but that didn’t last for long once Ferreira started targeting the Latvian’s body and on around the one minute mark Ferreira let rip with a big shot to the Latvian’s lower rib, which sent Konovalovs down like a sack of potatoes.

 

Konovalovs was clearly in distress so referee Chris Kelly stopped the count on three and waved the contest off so the medical team could attend to the Latvian.

 

Official time of the stoppage was 1 Minute and 3 sekund.

 

The second fight of the night pitted debuting Lee Cooper against one fight veteran Kyle McNicholas in an all Merseyside four round Super Middleweight contest.

 

Cooper approached the opening round in determined fashion, taking the fight to McNicholas right from the off.

 

Throughout the fight Cooper was well and truly on the front foot and very, very focused, Cooper controlled the proceedings more like an established prospect than a debuting fighter.

 

Don’t get me wrong this wasn’t a one sided contest, far from it, McNicholas fought hard for every second of every round, just Cooper’s performance was exceptional.

 

After four excellent action filled rounds referee Chris Kelly rightly scored the bout 40-36 in favour of the debuting Lee Cooper.

 

The opening fight of the night featured Warrington’s Ben Hough in action, against Blackpool’s Malcolm Richardson, in a four round Cruiserweight contest.

 

Right from the off Hough got behind his jab, Richardson responded in kind, however Hough just doubled up his jab and began to back Richardson up towards the ropes.

 

What followed next was about a minute or so of engaging action, which see Hough on the front foot with Richardson defending his position, then just as Richardson went to let rip with a shot Hough got through the Blackpool man’s excellent defence with a big right, that sent Richardson down heavily to the canvas.

 

Immediately referee Chris Kelly waved off the fight and the medical team entered the ring.

 

I’m pleased to say Richardson was perfectly OK, but must praise both the referee and medical team for the prompt actions, as the way Richardson went down it did look like a full on knockout.

 

Official time of the stoppage was 1 minute and 16 sekund z pierwszej rundy.

 

Once again a great event from Kyle Gallagher and his team, word is his next event will be in September and from what I’ve heard on the grapevine this will be a ‘don’t missevent as not only will top prospects from his stable be in action, but also featured on this event will be a number of unbeaten prospects from abroad.
