У головній події, Senator Manny “Pacman” Пакьяо, boxing’s only eight-division world champion, will end his two-year hiatus from a U.S. boxing ring when he returns to Las Vegas to defend his World Boxing Association Welterweight World Title against former four-division world champion and must-see attraction Adrien “Проблема” Broner.

“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,” сказав Леонард Еллербе, 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. Мейвезер Акції’ 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.”

Роз'єм (22-1-3, 13 КО) has fought twice at light heavyweight since relinquishing his super middleweight world title to campaign at 175 фунти. The 35-year-old, who was born in Stockholm, Швеція, 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 фунти, 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 КО) will be taking a step up to face an elite opponent when he battles Jack. Член з 2012 U.S. Olympic boxing team, Browne moved up the contender ladder in the 175-pound division with brute force and power, scoring three straight knockout victories against Thomas Williams, Молодший, Sean Monaghan and Francy Ntetu. Браун, 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.”

Кроляча садок (16-2, 4 КО) 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 і 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, Огайо, 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,” Warren said. “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 КО), an unbeaten southpaw from Lens, Pas-de-Calais, Франція, 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 і 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. Зараз, 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 КО) 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, Філіппіни, Tepora enters his U.S. debut on January 19 with stoppage wins in 11 з його останніх 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. Адрієн 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. Мексиканський. It’s going to be a great fight.”

Fighting out of Los Mochis, Сіналоа, Мексика, Руїс (38-4, 33 КО) 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,” said Ruiz. “But I’m ready. I don’t think he can handle my power. Я збираюся його нокаутувати. 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

Залишити коментар

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

ТОРОНТО (Грудня 7, 2018) — Former British light heavyweight champion Hosea Burton has never been one to duck a fight. Насправді, 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, Каліфорнія, where Burton was on-hand to support his cousin, Fury.

“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, Жовтень 20 in Brentwood, improving his record to 17-0 з 16 нокаути. Burton, проте, 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, Hughie Fury, 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, звичайно, 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.”

USA Boxing Alumni Association, клас 2018 Inductee

Колорадо-Спрінгс, Коло. (Вересень 6, 2018) – Living legend Рой Джонс, Молодший., 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.

 

 

 

The second annual USA Boxing Alumni Association Hall of Fame reception, held in conjunction with the 2018 USA Boxing Elite and Youth National Championships and Junior and Prep Open, Грудня 2-8, will be held Dec. 7, at the Radisson Hotel (215 S. Temple St.) in Salk Lake City, Юта.

 

 

 

 

На додаток до Jones, Клас з 2018 also includes two U.S. Olympic gold medalists and world (професійний) champions, Андре Уорд і Клареса Шилдс, as well as former USA Boxing National Director of Coaching Емануель Стюард and veteran USA Boxing official Tom Cleary. The latter two will be posthumously inducted.

 

 

 

The charter class inducted last year included Мухаммед Алі і Евандер Холіфілд, as well as veteran coaches Roosevelt Sanders і Tom Coulter.

 

 

 

“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.”

 

 

 

Джонс, За іронією долі, got into boxing at the age of 11 because of Ali. “I saw Ali vs. (Джо) Фрейзерand 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 запис, including gold medal performances at the 1984 National Junior Olympics and 1986 & 1987 National Golden Gloves Tournaments.

 

 

 

На 1988 Olympics in Seoul, Південна 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 для 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 у другому турі. His long, glorious journey has produced a remarkable 66-9 (47 КО) pro record, highlighted by nine major world titles in four different weight classes.

 

 

 

В 2003, Jones defeated Джон Руїз 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, атлетизм, movement and reflexes, Jones went undefeated through his first 34 про бої, 22-3 (14) в боях титул чемпіона світу. Against former, present or future world champions, Jones was 19-9 (8 КО) and included among his victims were greats such as Бернард Хопкінс, Джеймс Тоні, Майк Мак-Каллум,Вінні Pazienza, Вірджіл Хілл, Антоніо Тарвер і Фелікс Тринідад.

 

 

 

Сьогодні, 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 the “Future Stars of Boxing Tournament” в Лас-Вегасі, 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,” сказав Chris Cugliari, USA Boxing Alumni Association Executive Director, “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.”

 

 

 

Created to champion a lifelong, mutually beneficial relations between USA Boxing and its alumni, –боксери, officials, coaches and boxing fans — the Alumni Association connects generations of champions, inspiring and giving back to USA Boxing’s future boxing champions, в і з кільця.

Quotes of Note from other World Champions

 

George Foreman: “(Джонс) hits like a heavyweight and moved like a lightweight.”

 

Montell Гріффін: “Флойд (Мейвезер, Молодший) was no comparison as far as speed. Roy was much faster.”

 

Майк Мак-Каллум: “(Jones is) the greatest fighter of all time.”

 

 

 

 

If he ever hangs-up his gloves for good, Рой Джонс, Молодший. will be a first ballot inductee into the International Boxing Hall of Fame. There may never be another boxer quite like RJJ.

Залишити коментар

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 КО) 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 КО) destroyed former African champion Daniel Wanyonyi (27-13-2, 22 КО) of Kenya in two brutal rounds.

Heavyweight crusher Apti Davtaev (16-0-1, 15 КО) took out the Ukraine’s Evgeny German Skobenko in six dominant rounds.

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

Залишити коментар

On Wednesday, Вересень 5, fearless Russian light heavyweight contender Umar Salamov (21-1, 16 КО) will risk his IBF #11 and WBO #15 rankings when he takes on treacherous KO puncher Denis Liebau (23-2, 21 КО) 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, Росія, 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,"Він сказав. “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, Дмитро Саліта (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.”

Umar Salamov Challenges Light Heavyweight Champions Bivol and Alvarez

Залишити коментар

 

Russian light heavyweight contender Umar Salamov (21-1, 16 КО) 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. У своїй молодій кар'єрі, 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, Дмитро Саліта (along with Kazbek Aslambekov of KA-Promotions). “At only 24 років, 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.

У Суботу Я здійснив поїздку на захід від мого лондонського дому до прекрасного міста Кардіфф на захід, який рекламується Оуеном Уоткінсом на Льодовій арені Уельсу..

Хедлайнером заходу мав бути довгоочікуваний поєдинок за титул чемпіона Уельсу у важкій вазі між Харі Майлзом та Доріаном Дарчем., для Всесвітнього боксерського фонду (WBF) Чемпіонат Європи у важкій вазі. Однак бій довелося відкласти, оскільки Дарч не зміг взяти участь через дискваліфікацію, яку він отримав після бою на іншому заході за кілька тижнів до цього..

Незважаючи на цю невдачу, Оуен Уоткінс вирішив, що шоу має продовжуватися, і я радий, що він зробив такий вибір., оскільки в запланованому андеркарті було представлено ряд аматорів вищого класу, я з нетерпінням чекав, щоб побачити їхні професійні дебюти.

Першим був дебют Карла Томаса проти Кайла МакНіколаса в чотирьох раундових змаганнях у напівважкій вазі..

Обидва хлопці дуже добре почали демонструвати свої боксерські навички.

По ходу раунду Томас посилив тиск, підперши МакНіколаса на мотузки і почав розривати постріли в тіло та голову ліверпульця.

Коли раунд йшов до останньої хвилини, Томас вдарив по голові, що сколихнуло МакНіколаса до глибини душі., Томас продовжив рух лівою стороною до тіла, а потім майже відразу ж великим лівим ударом до тіла, що привело МакНіколаса до полотна.

На диво Макніколас зробив підрахунок, вони впевнені, що розводять їх жорсткими на Мерсісайді, оскільки це було злісне тіло, пострілене трохи нижче нижнього ребра, ви просто не бачите, як люди встають після них так часто.

Після перезапуску Томас повернувся в атаку, спочатку робив жорсткий джеб, потім ще один укол ліворуч у тіло та подвійний праворуч у голову.

Томас тримав тиск, поперчити МакНіколаса зловживаючою комбінацією «Тіло-голова», за яким слідує ще один хороший джеб, щоб підтримати МакНіколаса в нейтральний кут, а потім відпустити сенсаційний лівий хук в тіло, що надіслано Макніколас опустився вдруге.

Рефері Роджер Райлі розпочав підрахунок, а коли підрахунок досягнув восьми, Макніколас почав намагатися піднятися без успіху., не залишаючи рефері іншого вибору, окрім як відмахнутися від поєдинку, коли пролунав дзвінок, що означає кінець першого раунду.

Я радий сказати, що з Макніколасом все було добре, і він невдовзі встав на ноги.

Мої останні думки щодо цього конкретного бою; це, можливо, тривало лише один раунд, але який це був тріщинний раунд.

Далі побачимо, як Качпер Дудзінскі дебютував у професійному бою проти Майкла Келлі з Белфасту в чотирьох раундах суперсередньої вазі..

З самого початку Дудзінський отримав за своїм серйозним джебом і почав контролювати процес за допомогою швидких рук і жорстких подвійних джебів..

Келлі не кухоль, недовго постріл, він такий же кмітливий, як і вони, але навіть йому довелося погодитися на оборонну позицію і терпляче чекати будь-якої нагоди, як би струнка не була, протистояти, яких, чесно кажучи, було небагато.

Дудзінський справив серйозне враження проти Келлі і має фантастичне майбутнє в цьому спорті.

Можливо, це був його дебют, але на основі його виконання в суботу ніч, проти колишнього справжнього претендента на титул, Я вважаю, що він пройде весь шлях до вершини і теж цього заслуговує, будь-хто, хто може утримати Келлі на задній ногі так, як Дудзінський робив майже всі чотири раунди, без сумніву, є чимось особливим.

Не зрозумійте мене неправильно, Келлі завдав кілька крутих ударів, але сенсаційно швидка швидкість руки Дудзінського і чудовий захист звели ці можливості до мінімуму.

Приємний маленький штрих Келлі в кінці фінального раунду, слідуючи реакційному ходу «матричного стилю»., що майже не завадило йому торкнутися рукавиці, проте, На його роздратування він отримав підрахунок від рефері Кріса Келлі, хоча Келлі був переконаний, що насправді уникав, щоб його рукавичка торкалася полотна, але замість того, щоб стояти і протестувати, він опустився і продовжував віджиматися під час рахунку, щоб показати своє несхвалення, до великого задоволення натовпу.

Після чотирьох блискучих раундів не стало несподіванкою, що саме Дудзінський тримав руку вгору – офіційний результат показав, що Дудзінський забив свою першу профі-перемогу з рахунком a 40-35 точки маржа.

Наступним був Бен Макгіверн проти Бена Хафа в чотирьох раундових змаганнях у важкій вазі.

Що боротьба, Макгіверн головним чином керує розглядом справи, змушуючи Хафа на задню ногу, а також на мотузки для гарного шматка першої строфи. Хаф, можливо, перебував у обороні протягом значної частини першого, але коли з'явилися можливості, він використав їх стильно.

У другому раунді це був фактично повний перелом, з контрольною боротьбою Хафом і ставленням Макгіверна на задню ногу, і мотузки, подібно до того, як шотландець очолив перший раунд.

Третя строфа була набагато ближче бойовою справою, настільки, що мені було важко їх розділити, точки мудро.

Четвертий почався більш-менш як третій закінчився, з обома головними героями, які йдуть на це молотком і щипцями, але в міру того, як раунд проходив, Макгіверн прискорив темп достатньо, щоб не тільки забезпечити раунд, але й перемога.

Після чотирьох сенсаційних раундів дії, як я віддав вище, саме Макгіверн вийшов переможцем, Рефері Роджер Райлі відзначив відмінну боротьбу 39-37 на користь шотландця.

Після бою обидва боксери погодилися на реванш, про яку мені достовірно повідомили, ймовірно, відбудеться в Ліверпулі 8 вересня – позначте дату у своєму щоденнику, це бій, який ніхто не повинен пропустити!

Передостанній бій ночі дивись Блеквуд, Південний Уельс’ Ліам Пріс проти дуже, дуже пізня заміна Пентрефоела, Північний Уельс’ Стеффан Х'юз у загальноваллійському конкурсі.

Яким коркером був цей бій, це був повноцінний трилер від початку до останнього дзвоника.

Враховуючи, що Пріс мав значний недолік у вазі, він справді пішов на це, передаючи бій своїм більш досвідченим, і важче, противник.

Пріс впевнено боксував не тільки в атаці, але й у захисті від точних екзотів, які запустив Х'юз.

Пріс був вражаючим у всьому, і я впевнений, що нікого на Льодовій арені Уельсу не здивувало, коли карту рефері Кріса Келлі зачитали як 40-36 перемога за очками південно-уельського хлопця.

У фінальному професійному поєдинку цієї ночі високо оцінений колишній аматор-зірка Порта Талбота Леві Гріффітс проти Скотта Макінтайра з Ліверпуля..

Гріффітс такий гладкий, класний молодий хлопець почав добре і зробив кілька різких пострілів, що змусило Макінтайра перейти до «плану Б» на ранньому етапі, намагаючись утриматися всередині, щоб не допустити, щоб валлієць отримав свої великі удари.

План Б Макінтайра, можливо, був некрасивим, але це було дуже ефективно.

Після початкового «відкрити’ період, що дозволило гладкому валлійцю досягти хорошого рівня успіху, більша частина бійки могла відбутися в телефонній будці.

Макінтайр явно не мав наміру давати Гріффітсу будь-яку можливість дати значні удари, він просто тримав його прив’язаним весь час, іноді нечесними засобами, настільки, що після численних попереджень про те, щоб тримати або не ламати, коли сказано, рефері Роджер Райлі відняв очко, однак навіть це відрахування балів не завадить ліверпульцю забезпечити перемогу, офіційний рахунок 39-36.

Повинен сказати,, хоча особисто я розчарований тим, що бій за титул чемпіона Європи Майлз-Дарч WBF не відбувся, Промоутер Оуен Воткінс склав таку висококласну картку підтримки, що я, а також я впевнений, що всі присутні були добре задоволені пропонованим тарифом і з нетерпінням чекали його наступного підвищення, який відбудеться в Центрі дозвілля Cwrt Herbert у місті Ніт на 22й вересень.
