Nathan Reeve (Northampton) v Louis Norman (Shepshed)
Vacant BBBofC English Flyweight Title

Norman – sporting a neon pink afro wig (!) entered the ring first, followed by a serious-looking Reeve. This was a closely fought battle, although Reeve got off to the better start and Norman seemed to need longer to settle in to the fight. From my position ringside – it seemed that Reeve was the busier (certainly in the first half of the fight). Norman did a number of swinging shots which missed. But although Reeve’s shots seemed the slightly heavier as they landed – Norman didn’t really appear bothered by them. An exciting all-action contest which deserved the crowd’s rapturous applause, with Norman getting the points win to take the Title: 96-95; 97-94; 97-93. More...
