I enjoyed this card overall and the majority of the fights were evenly matched which I was very happy too see. John Docherty really impressed me by stopping Anthony Fox as Fox is a very good fighter and you have to be some talent to beat him inside the distance. I think Docherty should fightContinue reading “What’s next for Felix Cash, Jason Welborn plus card?”

David Benavidez misses weight, Loses WBC 168 pound title on the scales.
David Benavidez failed to make weight for his first defence of his 168 pound WBC world title today. He came in more than two pounds overweight and claimed he wouldn’t be able to get the weight off and even if he had wanted to the commission said they wouldn’t let him as it would beContinue reading “David Benavidez misses weight, Loses WBC 168 pound title on the scales.”
Kieron Conway versus Navid Mansouri breakdown.
This should be a very competitive fight as neither are beyond domestic level and look to be very evenly matched. Kieron Conway is a boxer who doesn’t have a lot of power and from what I’ve watched boxes best when he’s fighting off the back foot. I think the Ted Cheeseman fight flattered him asContinue reading “Kieron Conway versus Navid Mansouri breakdown.”
Zelfa Barrett versus Eric Donovan breakdown
This is a nice fight for Zelfa Barrett as Donovan should test him but isn’t a natural super featherweight. Zelfa Barrett has good skills and I like how much he goes to the body. He’s not terrible defensively but hes also not great. Barrett has very quick hands and is also very good technically. He’sContinue reading “Zelfa Barrett versus Eric Donovan breakdown”
John Docherty versus Anthony Fox breakdown.
This is the first big step up for John Docherty and will really show us just how good he is and if he’s ready to move on to the next level. Anthony Fox is a good domestic gatekeeper. John Docherty is a solid Super Middleweight who has looked perfect in his 8-0 career so far.Continue reading “John Docherty versus Anthony Fox breakdown.”
Felix Cash versus Jason Welborn breakdown
This should be a fun fight and also a good test for Felix Cash too see if he’s ready to move on to European level or not. Jason Welborn needs to win this fight if he’s going to be anything but a gatekeeper at this point in his career. I’m not going to break downContinue reading “Felix Cash versus Jason Welborn breakdown”
Shannon Courtenay versus Rachel Ball breakdown
This should be a very competitive fight and really is the perfect fight for both. Courtenay hasn’t really fought anyone yet and needs a major step up fight and Rachel Ball is a good fighter who could really progress her career if she wins live on Sky Sports. Courtenay normally boxes on the front footContinue reading “Shannon Courtenay versus Rachel Ball breakdown”
Ryo Sagawa versus Yuri Takemoto breakdown
Ryo Sagawa has come back from an early set back and now looks to be one of Japan’s best prospect’s. I think with the right fights he’s only 3 or 4 fights away from a world title shot. Takemoto has also come back from early setbacks but hasn’t faced the level of competition that SagawaContinue reading “Ryo Sagawa versus Yuri Takemoto breakdown”
Sahir Iqbal versus Maredudd Thomas breakdown.
This is the most competitive fight on the MTK card on Wednesday night. Both fighters are undefeated with Iqbal being 7-0 and Maredudd being 11-0. Iqbal has a decent jab and works to the body and head well. He seems quite tall for the weight and usually uses his height to his advantage. Due toContinue reading “Sahir Iqbal versus Maredudd Thomas breakdown.”
Craig Maclntyre versus Ischmael Ellis breakdown
This is a nice fight which should be competitive. Maclntyre should be the slight favourite as he’s the natural 140 pounder who has also had more notice while Ellis is taking this fight on short notice. Both have had a few competitive fights where they haven’t looked the best and this is a fight whereContinue reading “Craig Maclntyre versus Ischmael Ellis breakdown”
