BELFAST (Out 18, 2018) – Former two-division world champion Carl Frampton knocked out Luke Jackson to retain his interim featherweight title Saturday at Windsor Park in Belfast in a doubleheader that streamed live on SHOWTIME Sports social platforms.
In the opening bout of SHOWTIME BOXING INTERNATIONAL, lineal heavyweight champion Tyson Fury shut out Francesco Pianeta to line up a 2018 showdown with WBC Heavyweight World Champion Deontay Wilder.
An encore presentation will air in primetime tonight at 10 p.m. ET/PT on SHOWTIME EXTREME®.
Frampton (26-1, 15 Ko) turned in an impressive performance and scored his first knockout as a featherweight in what was a “dream” homecoming fight at the home of Northern Irish football. The former 126 and 122-pound champion now has his sights set at becoming a champion yet again in one of boxing’s deepest divisions.
After a dominant seven rounds, Frampton scored a knockdown via a body shot with 30 segonn kite nan wityèm lan. Jackson (16-1, 7 Ko) survived the eighth but was clearly hurt. With Jackson absorbing continued punishment in the ninth, and down big on the scorecards, Jackson’s corner threw in the towel at 1:21.
“This was unreal,” Frampton said. “The atmosphere was special, the crowd was fantastic and they made my dream come true. It was unbelievable from start to finish.”
Fury (27-0, 19 Ko) established his jab against Pianeta (35-5-1, 21 Ko) and displayed the movement, hand speed and footwork that a prime “Gypsy King” utilized to dethrone Wladimir Klitschko in 2015 to become the unified and lineal heavyweight champion.
“I think it was a calculated boxing performance, as promised,” said Fury, who was fighting for just the second time in nearly three years. “We were able to get 10 good rounds in with a tough man. I was working on my boxing, trying to slip and slide, use the jab and get the rounds in. I was very happy with the performance.
“It’s no secret I need the rounds. I need to prove that I can go 10 rounds and have plenty left in the tank, and I did that tonight.”
Apre batay la, Wilder entered the ring to announce that the two undefeated heavyweights have agreed to a 2018 showdown for Wilder’s WBC title. A date and venue for the event, which will be produced and distributed by SHOWTIME PPV, pral anonse yon ti tan.
“We’re ready now,” Wilder said during the post-fight interview. “This fight will happen. It’s on. This fight is official. This is what we’ve been waiting for, pi bon batay la pi bon an.
“There’s one thing Tyson Fury has never had. He’s won a lot of belts but he’s never had the WBC belt. If he ever even thinks about having this belt he better wake up and apologize to me because it will never happen. I can’t wait to fight you because I am going to knock you out. This I promise you. Every man who has ever stepped in the ring with me, I’ve knocked them out in devastating fashion. You’ve never been knocked out, but you’re going to feel the experience of what it’s like to be hit by the Bronze Bomber.”
The 6-foot-9 Fury, who never lost his titles in the ring, will now face the 6-foot-7 Wilder, who has 39 debouchur nan l ' 40 batay pwofesyonèl.
“We are two men who will fight anybody,” Fury said. “This man has been trying to make a big fight with the other chump, I think we all know who I’m talking about. They called, I answered. I said to send the contract, they sent me the contract. Mwen te di repons lan se wi. And now he gets his chance to fight the linear heavyweight champion of the world.
“My promise is that when we go to Las Vegas, I’m knocking you out.”

BELFAST (Out 16, 2018) – Former two-division champion Carl Frampton and undefeated Australian contender Luke Jackson faced off on Thursday in Belfast during the final press conference for their featherweight showdown Saturday from Windsor Park.

SHOWTIME will air an encore presentation later that evening on SHOWTIME EXTREME® (10 p.m. ET / PT).
An expected 25,000 fans in Frampton’s hometown will witness the first boxing event at the home of Northern Irish football. Nan bout nan ouvèti, former IBF, WBA and WBO Heavyweight World Champion Tyson Fury will square off against two-time heavyweight title challenger Francesco Pianeta in Fury’s second comeback fight after a two-and-a-half-year layoff.
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.
Here’s what the fighters had to say at Windsor Park, the site of Saturday’s fight, nan Jedi:
Carl Frampton
“This is a dream. It’s soon going to be a reality to fight at Windsor Park in front of my passionate fan base. It’s special not only for me but for the city as well. Everybody’s talking about it and there’s a buzz in the city.
“I’m ready for this. I’ve seen a few things that Luke has said and I truly have not been overlooking him at all this whole camp. With all due respect, this is about more than Luke Jackson. This is about me at Windsor Park and I’ve trained very hard. I’m fitter than I was against Nonito Donaire.
“I know a fair bit about Luke. He’s very highly ranked by the WBO, I think he’s a solid professional. I just believe that I’m a different level. It doesn’t matter what anybody says, whatever happens on the night is all that matters. It’s all about who gets their arm raised at the end of the night and I believe that’s going to be me.
“Since I’ve teamed up with Jamie and his team, I feel like a different person. I wish I would have done it years ago. I’m so happy now and I’m enjoying boxing and I’m ready to put on a big performance.
“People ask me about (Josh) Warrington and (Oscar) Valdez so I mention them and those are the fights I want, but Luke Jackson is the only guy who’s been on my mind this whole training camp.”
Jamie Moore, Frampton’s trainer
“Carl Frampton is the consummate professional. Li evidan, we wanted a big unification fight but it just wasn’t possible. What you’ve got to understand is that this has been a dream of Carl’s for a long time and it doesn’t matter who’s in the opposite corner. I understand why Luke Jackson’s camp is hoping that we’re overlooking him because it’s the only way they can gain any sort of confidence. It’s just not the case. Statistics show that he is 10 percent fitter than he was when he fought (Nonito) Donaire.
“Carl is in his prime. Boxing isn’t just about your technique or your fitness, it’s a combination of those two things and your mentality. He’s still improving which is just a scary thought.”
Luke Jackson
“At the start, I thought Carl was overlooking me a bit but I think he understands what’s at stake and if he loses to me his career is pretty much over.
“We’ve trained extremely hard and smart this camp and I’ve spent a lot more time with Billy Hussein than what I normally do. I’ve got to fight the perfect fight and I believe I can do that.
“A world title for me would be a real life “Rocky” story. I’ve come from nothing and there’s a lot I’ve had to deal with in my life to get to this position. I’m very proud of myself to be here. My father is 67 years old and he’s never left the country of Australia and for me to give my father a reason to fly halfway across the world fills me with pride.
“It’s no surprise that it’s going to be a hostile environment on Saturday. Nan fen jounen an, I’ve just got to deal with it. I’ve tried to prepare for it mentally and we just have to wait and see if it works. I’m ready to weigh in and fight.”
Billy Hussein, Jackson’s trainer
“We’ve had a real good training camp. Carl is a great fighter so it’s an honor to be here and train Luke for such a massive fight. This is huge for us and we really want to win this fight. Australian boxing is on a high at the moment. We really want to win this fight for the fans who have supported Luke and it’s great to see the whole of Australia getting behind him for this fight.
“I’ve been around boxing my whole life. I’ve been involved in over a hundred world title fights, this is nothing new to me as a trainer so I’m able to guide Luke through all of this. He’s the ultimate professional and does everything right. His training camp has been more about being smart and I believe Carl Frampton is overlooking Luke and looking ahead to a Warrington fight. Just two weeks ago they were building (Sergey) Kovalev to fight (Dmitry) Bivol and he got beat and I believe we’re going to do the same thing.”
Frank Warren
“Luke’s not come here for just a sightseeing trip, he really fancies the job. It’s a big opportunity to upset Carl and put himself in position for some even bigger fights. But Carl’s a true professional and at the end of the day he knows what’s at stake here. He’s looking to make a statement and put himself in position for a possible unification fight. It’s no secret Josh Warrington is coming here – there are big things that can happen for the winner of this fight.”

EDMONTON, Kanada (Out 13, 2018) – One of the best top-to-bottom pro boxing cards of the year will air Saturday afternoon, Out 18, in Canada exclusively on Super Channel, live from Windsor Park in Belfast, Northern Ireland, Wayòm Ini.
Twa-fwa, two-division world champion Carl “Chacal a” Frampton takes on Luke “Aksyon” Jackson in the 12-round main event for the Interim World Boxing Organization (WBO) Featherweight World Championship in the 12-round main event. Three-time Irish Olympian Paddy “The Leprechaun” Barnes challenges World Boxing Council (WBC) flyweight world champion Cristofer “El Latigo” Rosales in the 12-round co-featured event. In a Special Heavyweight Attraction, undefeated former unified world heavyweight champion Tyson “Gypsy King” Fury continues his comeback in a 10-round match against veteran Francisco Pianeta.
Frampton vs. Jackson, presented by Frank Warren’s Queensbury Promotions, will air across Canada exclusively on Super Channel, kòmanse nan 2:45 p.m. AK / 11:45 a.m. PT.
“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, ki moun ki se 5-1 nan batay tit mond, 7-1 versus present or former world champions. Frampton has defeated world champions Steve Molitor – a native Canadian – Kiko Martinez (de fwa), 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, AUGUST 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 Olympics. 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. Mwen respekte l 'tankou yon avyon de gè, 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, ki se gwo. 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” kat, in addition to the previously mentioned main event and co-feature, will air in Canada exclusively on Super Channel.
(L-R) – Tyson Fury upset Wladimir Klitschko
Fury (26-0, 16 Ko) had been sidelined with mental health issues for the past 2 ½ ane, after shocking the boxing world November 28, 2015, when he defeated future Hall of FamerWladimir Klitschko (64-3, 53 Ko) pa fason pou yon 10-wonn desizyon inanim (116-111, 115-112, 115-112).
6 nan′ 9″ Fury became the undisputed world heavyweight champion, securing the IBF, WBA, WBO, IBO and The Ring championships, only to be stripped and/or relinquish his title belts without a single defense. Fury returned to the ring this past June against Sefer Seferi, who was unable to continue after four rounds.
Pianeta (35-4-1, 25 Ko), a native of Italy who lives in Germany, is a two-time world title challenger. The former WBO European champion is a cancer survivor.
Irish light heavyweight Steve Collins, Jr. (12-1-1, 4 Ko), the son of former two-division world champion Steve Collins, Sr, faces Steve “The Quiet Man” Ward (7-0, 3 Ko), of Belfast, in a regional title fight to open the broadcast.

Nan samdiI made the trip west from my London home to the beautiful city of Cardiff for the Owen Watkins promoted event at the Ice Arena Wales.
The event was due to be headlined by the much anticipated all Welsh Heavyweight title clash between Hari Miles and Dorian Darch, for the World Boxing Foundation (Wbf) European Heavyweight Championship. However the fight had to be postponed as Darch was unable to take part due to a suspension he received following a fight on a different event a few weeks prior.
Despite this setback Owen Watkins had decided that the show must go on and I for one am pleased he made that choice, as the planned undercard featured a number of top class amateurs I have been looking forward to watching making their professional debuts.
First up was debuting Carl Thomas versus Kyle McNicholas in a four round Light Heavyweight Contest.
Both lads started really well exhibiting their respective boxing skills.
As the round progressed Thomas stepped up the pressure, backing McNicholas onto the ropes and began letting rip with shots to the body and head of the Liverpudlian.
As the round progressed into the final minute Thomas landed a cracking right to the head that shook McNicholas to the core, Thomas followed up with a left to the body followed almost immediately with a big left to the body that sent McNicholas to the canvas.
Surprisingly McNicholas made the count, they sure breed them tough on Merseyside, as that was a vicious body shot just below the lower rib, you just don’t see people get up after those that often.
On the restart Thomas went straight back on the attack, firstly firing off a stiff jab followed by another stinging left to the body and a double right to the head.
Thomas kept up the pressure, peppering McNicholas with a wicked body-head combination followed by another good stiff jab to back McNicholas into a neutral corner before letting rip with a sensational left hook to the body, that sentMcNicholas down for a second time.
Referee Roger Riley began the count and as it just reached the eight count point McNicholas began to try and rise without success, leaving the referee no option but to wave the fight off just as the bell tolled to signal the end of the first round.
I’m pleased to say that McNicholas was perfectly OK and did get to his feet shortly after.
My final thoughts on this particular fight are; it may have only lasted one round but what a cracking round it was.
Next up see Kacper Dudzinski making his pro debut against Belfast’s Michael Kelly in a four round Super Welterweight contest.
Right from the off Dudzinski got behind his seriously strong jab and began controlling the proceedings with fast hands and stiff double jabs.
Kelly is no mug, pa pa yon piki long, he’s as savvy as they come, but even he had to concede to taking a defensive stance and patiently wait for any opportunity, no matter how slender, to counter, which to be honest were few and far between.
Dudzinski seriously impressed against Kelly and has a fantastic future in the sport.
It may have been his debut, but based on his performancenan Samdilannwit, against a former genuine title challenger, I reckon he’ll go all the way to the top and deserves it too, anyone who can keep Kelly on the back foot the way Dudzinski did for virtually the full four rounds is without doubt something special.
Don’t get me wrong Kelly landed some cracking shots but Dudzinski’s sensationally fast hand speed and superb defence kept those opportunities to the bare minimum.
Nice little touch from Kelly late in the final round, following a ‘matrix style’ reaction move, that almost prevented him touching a glove down, sepandan, much to his annoyance he received a count from referee Chris Kelly, although Kelly was convinced he’d actually had avoided his glove touching the canvas, but instead of standing there and protesting he dropped down and proceeded to do push ups throughout the count to show his disapproval, anpil nan plezi a nan foul moun yo.
After four brilliant rounds it came as no surprise that it was Dudzinski whose hand was held aloft – the official result showed Dudzinski scoring his maiden pro victory by a 40-35 pwen Marge.
Next up was Ben McGivern versus Ben Hough in a four round Cruiserweight contest.
Ki sa ki yon batay, McGivern mainly bossing the proceedings, forcing Hough on to the back foot as well as the ropes for a good chunk of the first stanza. Hough may have been on the defensive for a good part of the first but when the opportunities arose he took them in style.
It was virtually a complete turnaround in Round Two, with Hough wrestling control and putting McGivern on the back foot, and ropes, similar to the way the Scot had bossed the first round.
The third stanza was a much closer fought affair, so much so I found it hard to split them, points wise.
The fourth started out more or less as the third ended, with both protagonists going for it hammer and tongs, but as the Round progressed McGivern stepped up the pace enough to not only secure the round, but also the victory.
After four sensational all action rounds, as I gave away above, it was McGivern that came away victorious, referee Roger Riley scoring the excellent contest 39-37 in favour of the Scotsman.
Following the fight both boxers agreed to a rematch, which I have been reliably informed is likely to take place in Liverpool onSeptember 8th– put the date in your diary this is a fight no one should miss!
The penultimate fight of the night see Blackwood, South Wales’ Liam Preece versus very, very late replacement Pentrefoelas, North Wales’ Steffan Hughes in an all Welsh contest.
What a corker this fight was, it was an all action thriller from start right through to the final bell.
Considering Preece had a considerable weight disadvantage to deal with, he really went for it, taking the fight to his more experienced, and heavier, opozan.
Preece boxed confidently not only when on the attack but also when defending against the pinpoint accurate exocets launched by Hughes.
Preece was impressive throughout, and I’m sure it didn’t surprise anyone in the Ice Arena Wales when referee Chris Kelly’s scorecard was read out as a 40-36 points victory for the South Wales Lad.
The final pro fight of the night pitted highly rated former amateur star Port Talbot’s Levi Griffiths versus Liverpool’s Scott McIntyre.
Griffiths is so slick, the classy youngster began well and landed some stinging shots, which forced McIntyre to switch to ‘plan B’ early on in an attempt to keep on the inside to prevent the Welshman from getting his big shots off.
McIntyre’s plan B may not have been pretty, but boy oh boy it was highly effective.
After the initial ‘open’ peryòd, which allowed the slick Welshman to achieve a good level of success, the majority of the fight could have taken place in a phone box.
McIntyre clearly had no intention of giving Griffiths any opportunity to let rip with any big shots, he just kept him tied up throughout, sometimes by foul means, so much so that after numerous warnings for holding or not breaking when told, referee Roger Riley deducted a point, however even that point deduction wasn’t going to prevent the Liverpool man from securing the victory, the official score being 39-36.
Te di, whilst personally disappointed that the Miles-Darch WBF European title fight didn’t take place, promoter Owen Watkins had put together such a top class support card that I, as well as am sure everyone else in attendance had their Pugilistic Appetite well and truly sated by the fare on offer and look forward to his next promotion, which will take place at the Cwrt Herbert Leisure Centre in Neath on the22nd September.
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, menm jan li te fè klè lè li te pale pi bonè.
“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.
I want this so bad, I am definitely ready for this.”
Jonny McConville versus Neeraj Goyat for the Professional Boxing Council (PBC) International Silver Welterweight Championship will take place on the Kyle Gallagher promoted Victory Fight Club event at the Jubilee Sports Bank in Liverpool on Saturday 8th September 2018.

KSI’s head coach and UK amateur boxing standoutViddal Rileywill turn pro as a cruiserweight after a 49-fight amateur career that included numerous regional titles and a silver medal at the Junior European Championships. Riley will move to the professional ranks with Jeff Mayweather as his trainer and be managed by Amer Abdallah, who most notably works with two-division world champion Badou Jack.
“I am looking forward to taking advantage of this great opportunity to turn pro and start this journey under the tutelage of Jeff Mayweather,” said Riley. “Having Amer Abdallah on-board fills me with confidence that we can take over the cruiserweight division and make history.”
Riley recently visited Las Vegas along with KSI back in March where he met Mayweather at the Mayweather Boxing Club. While his primary focus was preparing his fighter for his highly-anticipated fight against Logan Paul, Riley took advantage of the opportunity by sparring with several local cruiserweights, including unbeaten contender Andrew “Bèt la” Tabiti.
“Sparring Viddal was like looking in the mirror,” Di Tabiti. “He’s very smart and I was impressed with his speed and power. I’m very interested to see him grow as a pro fighter.”
Mayweather was immediately impressed by the skillset he saw from Riley, “I think he has the potential to become world champion in a very short time frame. He has extremely fast hands and explosive power, but his continued thirst for knowledge impressed me the most.”
“Viddal has the potential to make a long-lasting impact on this sport,” Said Abdallah. “He possesses both the skills to make significant noise in boxing along with the social media reach to connect with millions. It’s a promoter’s dream.”
With temperatures soaring into the 30s in the UK most of the country seemed to be headed to the beaches, or watching the World Cup, however a huge contingent fans of the Pugilistic Arts had bigger and better things on their mind and instead headed to Essex for the Tommy Jacobs versus Bilal Mohammad World Boxing Foundation (Wbf) International title fight, which was due to be supported by Iain Weaver versus Emmanuel Addo Professional Boxing Council (PBC) International Title clash at Charter Hall in Colchester.
However on their arrival they were greeted with the news that not only had Jacobs’ opponent had been changed to Godwin Cudjoe at the last minute but the aforementioned PBC title fight had been switched to a ten round non-championship contest in which Weaver would face Ghana’s Michael Barnor instead, as neither Mohammad or Addo had received their Visas in time.
With the Charter Hall literally rammed to the hilt Ghana’s Godwin Cudjoe made his way to the ring and received a very warm welcome from the fans, however as Jacobs began his ring-walk the decibel levels went through the roof, leaving no doubt it was the local hero Jacobs that they had come to support.
Right from the opening bell Jacobs and Cudjoe moved to centre ring and began to tentatively test the other with a series of good solid jabs, then around the thirty second mark Jacobs lets rip with an explosive right hand to the head, which he immediately backed up with another huge right to send the Ghanaian reeling backwards.
Cudjoe initially covered up before throwing a big solid jab, Jacobs responded in kind, before letting rip with another big right. Cudjoe boxed behind his jab to open up some room for a body shot, but as he goes to throw the shot Jacobs throws another big shot and starts to push the Ghanaian back towards the ropes.
With his man backed on the ropes Jacobs stepped forward and let rip with a series of big shots to force Cudjoe right back into his own corner before proceeding to let rip with big left and rights, culmination in a huge right to the head that sent the big Ghanaian to the deck.
Cudjoe bravely tried to make it to his feet but immediately dropped down onto his haunches, initially referee Lee Murtagh continued the count but then waived the contest off so that Cudjoe could receive attention from the medical team.
After a thorough medical check-over Cudjoe rose to his feet to applause from the crowd and then moved to centre ring in time for the MC result announcement and Championship belt presentation to Tommy Jacobs by World Boxing Foundation Supervisor Mr David Murphy.
Official time of the stoppage was one minute and eleven seconds of the first round.
Side note to this fight, the Judges for the WBF title fight were former British, European and WBU World Champion Wayne Alexander, former British and Commonwealth Heavyweight Champion Julius Francis and Ghana’s top International Championship referee and judge Roger Barnor.
As mentioned above Ferndown, Dorset’s Iain Weaver was due to be challenging Ghana’s Emmanuel Addo for the Professional Boxing Council (PBC) International Lightweight Crown, however as Addo hadn’t received his visa in time to travel over to the UK, Weaver instead had to be content with a non-Championship ten rounder against late replacement Michael Barnor.
Both boxers moved to centre ring on the opening bell and began exchanging testing shots in an attempt to wrestle control, initially it was single shots but after about twenty seconds or so Weaver started to let his shots flow, letting rip with combinations to body and head.
Barnor responds in kind, doubling up his jabs and shooting solid rights to the body of the Englishman. Initially Weaver steps back a touch and works behind his jab, before powering another stinging combination to the body and head of the Ghanaian.
Barnor throws caution to the wind and goes on an all out attack and throws a powerful jab followed closely by a big right hand and a double-handed shot to the body. Weaver weaves and bobs to avoid the shots landing solidly, before responding with a double-handed flurry.
Weaver then proceeded to drop his hands in an attempt to draw his opponent in, which he does, before shooting a looping shot into the face of the forward marching Ghanaian, quickly followed by a couple more solid rights.
Barnor kept marching forward behind some good solid jabs, Weaver though just stood his ground before launching a massive right to the head. Barnor though is made of sterner stuff, he didn’t back down, just stood his ground and got back behind his jab.
Both protagonists vied for control of centre ring in similar vein for the next minute or so until the end the round.
Weaver started had and fast with a big combination, Barnor responds with a solid jab, but in doing so left a the smallest of openings, Weaver doesn’t need a second invitation and lets rip with a big right to the body followed up with a double right to the head and a huge left to the body.
Barnor survives the onslaught and gets off a couple of powerful shots of his own, Weaver just walks through them and backs the Ghanaian onto the ropes and proceeds to pepper Barnor with shots to body and head.
Barnor manages to spin off the ropes and dangles a jab; Weaver stalks him and throws a right, left to the head, right to body and left hook to the head combination. Barnor weaves and ducks to avoid another big left, but on rising was confronted by a big sensationally quick double-handed flurry of shots.
Barnor responds immediately with a cracking left, right combination of his own, Weaver shrugs the shots off and steps in with a massive left to the head immediately followed by massive right, left exocets to the head that sent Barnor crashing to the canvas.
Barnor began to rise on the sixth count point, but as he did his legs just folded and down he went again, Referee Lee Murtagh didn’t hesitate, he waived the fight off on the one minute and forty nine seconds mark of the second round and signalled for the medical team to enter the ring to attend to Michael Barnor.
I’m pleased to report Michael Barnor was perfectly OK and even joined Iain Weaver in centre ring for the official result announcement.
At the end of the contest it was announced that Iain Weaver Versus Emmanuel Addo for the Professional Boxing Council (PBC) International Championship will now take place in Aberdeen on the 28th July.
Also on the event was a four round Welterweight contest I was really looking forward to watching and reporting on as it featured the UK’s youngest professional boxer, Grantham’s Max Brown, making his pro debut against Belfast’s Marty Kayes.
I’ve seen young Max Brown in action on a number of occasions and believe he has the skills and ability to emulate other stars, such as Saul Alvarez (CANELO), who turned pro at a tender age and went on to secure Championship honours.
Kayes, a seasoned pro, on the other hand has been quite successful over the past couple of months, securing two victories in his previous three bouts, one of which was a Masters Title fight and the first of those wins was over a top former Amateur star, which made it clear to me that young Brown was destined for a true Baptism of Fire, what I didn’t realise was just how much though.
I’m not going to write a round by round report on the fight, just an overview as much of the action throughout the fight was in similar vein.
Brown boxed his normal slick, boxing long style, whilst Kayes stuck to what he does best – pressuring his opponents.
Brown concentrated on utilising his jab, to fairly good effect early in each round, but as the rounds progressed just seemed to hang the jab out there but not actually connect. When the youngster did let his hands go he landed some sensational shots, just not enough.
Kayes seems to love walking down his opponents, he just keeps going, and like a steam train he just keeps on chuffing away ignoring obstacles, such as jabs, until he reaches his destination. Once there the tough Belfast man lets rip with big flurries of shots to the body before stepping back and getting behind his jab, which is exactly what he did on Saturday night.
The later rounds got quite messy at times, much of it after Kayes corralled the youngster on the ropes, Brown’s response was to grab hold to prevent the Belfast man throwing his shots.
To the same degree there was some exquisite work from Brown, just unfortunately only a small amount of the shots reaching their intended target.
After four rounds of boxing Referee Lee Murtagh scored the bout 39-37 in favour of Belfast’s Marty Kayes.
Whilst the correct result without doubt, I can’t help but feel for the youngster as I know how good a boxer he is, his style and approach usually similar that to the “Blessed One” Iain Weaver, so will definitely be there for his next fight and watch him get his first Pro win.
My final words are on the event itself; this is the first time I’ve been to a Tommy Jacobs promoted (as well as headlined) evènman. Jacobs sure knows how to put on a show, the presentation was first class, the fights, not just the pro bouts but also the undercard sanctioned by Essex Boxing Organisation, were all of the highest standard, no wonder on the hottest day of the year so far so many people turned out. Kudos Mr Jacobs.

Rapò: Gianluca Di Caro
Sou Samdi swa, pandan ke pifò fanatik boksè Britanik yo te swa nan Manchester Arena oswa ap gade BT Sport pandan Tyson Fury te fè retounen li te tann nan bag la., yon gwo kantite fanatik boksè lokal yo toujou fè pelerinaj nan Jubilee Sports Bank nan Liverpool pou dènye òf pwomotè lokal Kyle Gallagher..
Pandan ane ki sot pase yo, Gallagher te bati tèt li yon trè bon repitasyon pou mete sou bon jan kalite montre, youn kote fanatik lokal yo konnen yo pral pase yon gwo nwit deyò epi yo gade byen matche ak tout batay aksyon prezante kandida lokal yo ak nan Samdi sèvis nòmal rekòmanse..
Nan tèt emisyon an se te lokal pwospè Martin Freeman envenki, kont opozisyon seryezman difisil nan Dmitrijs Ovsjannikovs Letoni.
Sou dènye aparans li, sou yon Gallagher ankouraje montre tounen nan mwa mas, Ovsjannikovs jwenn viktwa sou konpayon jimnastik Freeman a Mitchell Walsh, atravè yon dezyèm tou TKO, ki te ajoute yon ti kras anplis nan epis nan bout patikilye sa a.
Wonn nan ouvèti wè Freeman sou pye devan an, Ovsjannikovs sanble kontante yo kontrekare pou majorite wonn nan, ak okazyonèl atak atak chak fwa opòtinite a leve.
Okòmansman li te plis nan menm bagay la tou nan de wonn, sepandan kòm wonn nan pwogrese Ovsjannikovs te kòmanse vin yon ti jan pi okipe, aktivman pran batay la nan Liverpudlian la, men tout te di ak fè li te toujou wonn Freeman a.
Mouvman Freeman nan twazyèm lan te pòv, li tap boche pafwa, ak Ovsjannikovs byen klè remake sa a epi li te kòmanse gen plis aktif nan apwòch li, tèlman bagay ke souvan li ta corral Freeman nan yon kwen anvan kite dechire ak yon rafal vaksen.
Kwen Freeman a t ap kriye nan chaj yo pou yo soti nan kwen an, pa ka blame yo kòm li te taktik sa a pa Ovsjannikovs ki te mennen nonm yo Walsh te sispann pa Latvian an nan mwa mas..
Freeman te fè li atravè wonn lan, men kounye a se jis youn nan wonn moute kòm twazyèm lan te klèman Ovsjannikovs '.
Kwen Freeman a te travay fòlman sou janm li pandan repo a, men lè klòch ouvèti pou wonn lan sonnen, tout moun te klè ke aksidan an te vrèman boulvèse Liverpudlian..
Katriyèm lan reflete twazyèm lan, Ovsjannikovs kontwole pwosedi yo, men Freeman fouye byen fon epi li siviv wonn nan. Yon fwa ankò nan repo ekip Freeman a te travay di sou chaj yo.
Avèk nòt yo egal ale nan senkyèm Ovsjannikovs te ale nan ofansif la yon lòt fwa ankò., sepandan Freeman, pandan y ap toujou bwete, pa t jis rezoud pou kontrekare, o non, li te deside si li te fè oswa mouri epi li te kòmanse plante pye l 'yon fwa ankò epi kite rip ak gwo vaksen, tèlman Ovsjannikovs te retounen nan yon apwòch defansif ak kontrekare pafwa, anpil nan soulajman nan kwen Freeman a mwen ta panse.
Sizyèm ak dènye wonn nan te yon tanpèt, ankò Ovsjannikovs te ale difisil sou atak la nan yon tantativ pou fè bak Freeman nan yon kwen, sepandan Liverpudlian a pa t 'gen okenn nan li ak kèk ekselan zòtèy zòtèy slugging te swiv., se te yon wonn final sezisman, kontwòl chanje retounen ak lide pandan tout jouk klòch final la.
Apre sis wonn ki te goumen anpil, kat nòt Abit Chris Kelly a li 58-56 an favè Martin Freeman.
Penultyèm bout lannwit lan wè Widnes, Jamie Oldfield nan Cheshire, an aksyon kont Marty Kayes Belfast la, nan yon konkou kat wonn Welterweight.
Oldfield te antre nan batay la nan yon viktwa premye wonn kanpe sou Edgars Sazanovics nan premye pro li an mas., pandan ke Kayes, yon pi- li te ye ak toujou okipe opozan, te antre nan batay la dèyè de viktwa pwen ekselan nan mwa avril, premye viktwa li depi jiyè 2016, kèk sèz batay deja.
Depi nan kòmansman an se Oldfield ki mennen batay la bay Kayes, Ilandè a menm si kanpe tè l ', li kontrekare efektivman e konsa te kòmanse yon kokenn tout aksyon wonn.
Se te yon gwo wonn, ou jis pa t 'kapab wete je ou nan batay la pou yon segond kòm de vanyan sòlda sa yo te ale nan lagè, tou de fouye byen fon nan asenal yo nan vaksen, chak fwa youn nan yo te sanble ap pran kontwòl, lòt la ta kontrekare ak fòs egal pou lite kontwòl.
Gwo wonn jis pa t 'kapab fann yo, definitivman yon wonn trase nan je m '.
Plis nan menm bagay la tou nan dezyèm ak twazyèm lan, byenke nan tou de Oldfield te sanble jis sou sekirite jij yo akòz atak pi efikas. Mwen dwe jis mansyone yon koup la echanj, kote Oldfield ak Kayes te ale zòtèy a zòtèy echanje konbinezon doub men, tou de mesye kite rip ak 10-12 konbinezon kout pyen an menm tan, wow, vrèman te jwi sa yo.
Katriyèm ak final tou se te plis oswa mwens yon imaj glas nan premye a, ankò mwen pa t 'kapab fann yo, nòt ki gen bon konprann, e li te fò anpil ke mwen te fè nòt li menm jan ak abit Chris Kelly la – 40-38 an favè Jamie Oldfield
Yon lòt avyon de gè lokal premye, David Taylor, te pwochen moute, kont Vladimirs Slikovs Letoni nan yon konpetisyon kat wonn Super Middleweight.
Tou de protagonist yo te soti difisil ak vit, tou de batay difisil pou tè sant, Anplis de sa, li te klè ke ni te gen okenn entansyon fè bak pou yon segonn.
Pandan premye tou an li te difisil pou divize de la, chak fwa swa kite rip ak yon piki lòt la kontrekare nan mòd menm jan an, pa gen sipriz ke menm Abit Chris Kelly pa t 'kapab divize yo sou nòt li.
De wonn te yon lòt fwa ankò yon wonn tout aksyon, Slikovs petèt yo te plis sou pye devan an, sepandan menm si Taylor te oblije defann pi souvan, se li ki te ateri pi plis kout fe, pi enpòtan vaksen ki pi di yo.
Plis nan menm bagay la nan twazyèm lan, ak Taylor byen klè genyen wonn nan, sepandan katriyèm lan, alòske menm jan ak tou anvan yo, eksepte kounye a Slikovs te kapab jwenn ranje li dwat ak ateri kèk gwo vaksen.
Apre kat tout jij aksyon, nòt Abit Chris Kelly te montre jis ki jan bout sa a te fèmen, jan yo li 39-38 bay David Taylor.
Apre entèval la, premye ti gason lokal Steven Sunners te fè fas ak Latvian Eduard Belas nan yon konpetisyon kat wonn Middleweight..
Dwa nan koupe a Sunners te ale nan atak la, sepandan Belas se osi konprandr jan yo vini e li te itilize eksperyans li pou anpeche Sunners ateri yon piki grav okòmansman..
Sepandan, Sunners te kenbe kalm epi yo te itilize jab li a gwo efè pou alamòd yon bon ouvèti byen bonè nan wonn lan ak aterisaj yon kò-piki fann..
Belas chanje taktik e li ale nan ofansif la. Sunners pa t 'sanble sa ki konsène ak jis kenbe jabbing nan tèt la, fòse Belas kenbe gad li wo.
Apre kèk lòt echanj, Sunners jete yon konbinezon pwòp, kreye jis ase nan yon ouvèti glise nan yon lòt bon piki solid, fwa sa a ak efè a mande pou voye Latvian nan twal la.
Belas fè konte a, imedyatman apre rekòmanse Sunners yo te nan tout Latvian an tankou yon gratèl, kite vaksen chak fwa yon ouvèti prezante tèt li.
Li pa t 'tan sa jiskaske yon lòt fann nan zam Latvian an parèt, Sunners te reyaji imedyatman e ankò voye Belas nan twal la.
Belas ankò fè konte a epi defann byen jouk nan fen wonn lan.
Wonn de te kòmanse nan anpil menm jan ak wonn anvan an te fini, ak Sunners nan plen koule ak Belas kouvri moute ak defann ak yon kout kouto okazyonèl pwòp tèt li.
Sepandan, apre apeprè kenz segonn oswa konsa Sunners ateri yon gwo men dwat ki voye Latvian an lou nan twal la., Abit Chris Kelly imedyatman balanse batay la, li pa menm kòmanse konte a, olye de konvoke ekip medikal la antre nan ring la epi ale nan Belas la frape.
Mwen kontan di Belas te OK ak lè li evantyèlman leve nan pye l ', te resevwa yon gwo aplodisman nan men tout moun ki te prezan.
Tan ofisyèl nan arè a te jis 22 segonn nan dezyèm tou an.
Jis anvan entèval la, senkyèm batay nan mitan lannwit lan mete ti gason lokal Craig Kennerdale kont Prestwick, Leon Roberts Scotland nan yon konkou kat wonn Welterweight.
Konkou sa a anpil antisipe ant de konbatan trè rated jèn te espere yo dwe yon cracker, men li te vin pi plis pase sa se te yon batay sansasyonalis ant de vanyan sòlda egalman matche..
Li te raple m anpil nan batay la klasik klasik ant Carl Frampton ak Ian Bailey nan Belfast kèk ane tounen., apre sa, tout foul moun yo nan Sal Wa a te sou pye yo ap bat bravo pou tou de vanyan sòlda yo, epi li pa sipriz ke apre batay yo nan Samdi swa Kennerdale ak Roberts te resevwa tou yon ovasyon nan mitan foul moun yo nan Liverpool., boy o boy yo te merite li san pousan.
Menm jan ak Frampton-Bailey, se te aksyon san rete nan tout, Kennerdale ak Roberts te goumen mayifik pou chak segonn nan chak wonn.
De talan serye sa yo vrèman te ale pou li pandan tout konkou a, kontwole chanje ant yo ak regilarite sa yo ou jis pa t 'kapab pran je ou nan batay la pou yon segond.
Nan plizyè okazyon batay sa a te gen fanatik yo trè vokal kanpe ak bat bravo pou aksyon an, espesyalman yon koup nan echanj doub men, kote tou de gwo chabwak pa sèlman matche youn ak lòt kout pyen pou kout pyen, men tou konbinezon ap koule tankou dlo pou konbinezon.
Abit Chris Kelly fè nòt konkou a 40-37 an favè Kennerdale, ki yo dwe onèt pandan y ap rezilta ki kòrèk la jis pa reflete jis ki jan fèmen chak wonn te.
Te renmen chak segonn nan batay sa a, li vrèman te yon bagay espesyal, donk si w gen chans eseye gade videyo a, ke mwen te di yo pral sou YouTube pita nan semèn sa a, definitivman byen vo gade.
Ou dwe di sa a te premye chwa mwen nan batay nan lannwit lan, menm jan ou ta deja li pi wo a te gen definitivman plis pase yon sèl konkiran pou felisitasyon sa a.
Katriyèm bout lannwit lan mete Bradley Muldoon kont debut David Calveley nan yon kat wonn.
Anvan batay la te gen anpil pale sou match-up sa a sou rezo sosyal yo, aparamman yo te goumen de fwa deja, mo te ke li te premye Calveley ki te genyen tou de.
Dwa soti nan klòch la ouvèti se Calveley ki te ale tou dwat sou atak la, Okòmansman, Muldoon te kouvri men byento te kòmanse sèvi ak jab li a efektivman pou anpeche Calveley chaje difisil pou fèmen l 'kont kòd yo..
Pandan tout wonn lan, li te nòmalman Calveley te dirije wonn nan depi nan kòmansman rive nan fini, efektivman kenbe Muldoon sou pye dèyè a.
Plis nan menm bagay la tou nan dezyèm ak twazyèm lan, men katriyèm lan se te yon wonn ki pi sere batay, youn nan ki Muldoon te kenbe pwòp tèt li.
Apre kat jij aksyon Abit fè nòt konkou a 40-37 an favè Calveley, sepandan sa pa t 'fen pwoblèm nan, kòm Muldoon te pwoteste ke li te sipoze yon sis wonn epi li te mande pou batay la dwe deklare yon non-konkou.. Aparamman pwomotè yo kouri fèy nan chanm lan te montre li kòm yon sis wonn pa kat la jan yo te anonse nan kòmansman batay la ak lis pa komisyon an sou orè a..
Dean Ferreira Liverpool kont Andrejs Konovalovs Letoni nan yon konpetisyon kat wonn Super Featherweight se te twazyèm batay sou kat la..
Ferreira te sanble detèmine pou l fè yon gwo deklarasyon nan batay sa a, soti difisil ak vit dwa soti nan klòch la ouvèti ak kite rip ak gwo vaksen, Konovalovs okòmansman kouvri moute, men byento reyalize ke li ta dwe goumen wout li soti nan danje epi li te kontinye fè sa.
Men, Ferreira se osi difisil ke yo vini e li byento te lite kontwòl dèyè e li te fè bak ènmi Latvian li tounen sou kòd yo anvan li te kite dechire ak kout kout men rapid pou voye Konovalovs desann nan premye trant segonn yo oswa konsa..
Konovalovs te fè li nan pye l 'prèske imedyatman, sou rekòmanse a Ferreira te ale tou dwat tounen sou atak la.
Konovalovs te vin dèyè jab li nan yon efò pou kenbe Liverpudlian a chaje difisil, men sa pa t dire pou lontan yon fwa Ferreira te kòmanse vize kò Latvian an epi sou yon minit Ferreira te kite dechire ak yon gwo piki nan kòt pi ba Latvian an., ki voye Konovalov desann tankou yon sak pòmdetè.
Konovalovs te klèman nan detrès, kidonk abit Chris Kelly te sispann konte sou twa e li te retire konkou a pou ekip medikal la te kapab patisipe nan Letoni..
Tan ofisyèl nan arè a te 1 minit ak 3 segonn.
Dezyèm batay la nan mitan lannwit lan te rankontre premye Lee Cooper ak yon sèl batay veteran Kyle McNicholas nan yon tout Merseyside kat wonn Super Middleweight konpetisyon..
Cooper te pwoche bò kote ouvèti a yon fason detèmine, pran batay la McNicholas dwa soti nan koupe la.
Pandan tout batay la Cooper te byen ak vrèman sou pye devan ak anpil, trè konsantre, Cooper kontwole pwosedi yo plis tankou yon pwospè etabli pase yon avyon de gè debut.
Pa fè m mal sa a pa t yon konkou yon sèl bò, lwen li, McNicholas te goumen di pou chak segonn nan chak wonn, jis pèfòmans Cooper a te eksepsyonèl.
Apre kat aksyon ekselan ranpli jij abit Chris Kelly rezon ki fè nòt batay la 40-36 an favè debut Lee Cooper la.
Batay ouvèti lannwit lan te prezante Ben Hough Warrington nan aksyon, kont Malcolm Richardson nan Blackpool, nan yon konkou Cruiserweight kat wonn.
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.
Tan ofisyèl nan arè a te 1 minute and 16 segonn nan premye tou an.
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 miss’ event 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.
