In case you haven’t heard anything already… there’s been an upset somewhere else tonight.
Jasmina Zapotoczna boxed superbly and didn’t falter under relentless pressure to score an unexpected win over previously undefeated Macy Rose Courtney for the WBA International flyweight title.
After ten rounds, all three judges’ scorecards read 98-92, 97-93, 96-94, with super-middleweight talent Callum Simpson prevailing over the 30-year-old, who was up against the 30-year-old just a month ago for his big title.

We’re still almost two hours, three bouts away from the main event – a thrilling ten-round contest between John Hedges and Lewis Oakford for the vacant Southern Area cruiserweight title.
But now the fight has been stopped early in the sixth round, after an accidental – but still horrific – clash of heads left Oakford with a cut above his left eye. Almost exactly like the one suffered by Sunny Edwards last weekend.
