It was a full house last night at the packed Brentwood Centre in Essex, England for the Frank Maloney promoted Fightnight headlined by the eagerly awaited contest between John McDermott and Tyson Fury.

The night was billed as ‘Colossal’ with McDermott defending his English Heavyweight title against younger, less experienced Fury.

The atmosphere inside the Brentwood Centre was fantasti ! And dancing along to his entrance music - ‘Tonight’s gonna be a good night’ - Fury, as usual, was clearly enjoying the attention.

Unlike his opponent - a mean looking ‘Big Bad John’ McDermott - who ‘plodded’ down the stairway to the ring. More...

The tension between John McDermott and rival Tyson Fury was tremendous yesterday at the weigh-in between the two heavyweights, who clash tonight at Brentwood Centre in Essex.

At stake is McDermott's English heavyweight title but many are looking at this bout as a manner of judging the future viability of undefeated prospect Fury's career.

At the weigh-in, McDermott looked to be the fittest of his career and was clearly furious at his towering antagonist, who had waged a typical pre-fight campaign of trash talking. More...

Last night at Crowtree Leisure Centre in Sunderland, England, Frank Maloney hosted a fight night which would feature three title fights and one title eliminator.

The event - billed as ‘Fighting on Home Soil’ was headlined by Jamie Moore, Rendall Munroe and Danny Williams. There would also be a British Light Middleweight title eliminator between Sam Webb and Thomas McDonagh, and Tony Jeffries would fight in front of a home-crowd as he took on German boxer Roy Meissner.

With a total of eleven contests, last night would prove to be an exciting-all action evening - not least because it would provide the lead-up for Sky Sports viewers to the Manny Pacquiao vs. Ricky Hatton fight in Las Vegas.

It might not have been the MGM Grand - but the 1600 fans crammed into the Sunderland venue were looking forward to a great night of boxing - and they weren’t disappointed! More...

European Light Middleweight Champion Jamie Moore retained his title for the first time by smashing the challenge of Roman Dzuman in the second round at Crow Tree Leisure Centre in Sunderland, England.

Just as in his title winning effort against Michele Piccirillo two month ago, Moore was simply on fire, pounding through the defenses of his Ukrainian opponent in the first frame before dropping Dzuman twice in the second with shattering body shots to produce a stoppage.

The 30 year old Salford southpaw improves to 32-3 (23) while Dzuman loses his third straight, and second European title challenge, to drop to 23-7-1 (10).

The big undercard saw a raft of important clashes as British Heavyweight Champion Danny Williams, 41-7 (31), again had mixed success against opponent John McDermott, 25-5 (16), posting a split decision win after the majority decision result last July. More...

A good fight card takes place tonight at Crow Tree Leisure Centre in Sunderland, England headlined by Jamie Moore's maiden European Light Middle title defense against Ukraine's Roman Dzuman.

Moore, 31-3 (22), finally got an opportunity to fight for the European crown two months ago after years of false starts and the 30 year old Salford southpaw simply tore through ex-IBF Welter and two-time former European light middle ruler Michele Picirillo, who was knocked out in two rounds.

Moore rarely has big fights this close together but wasn't taxed very hard by Piccirillo and should be in good fighting shape in tonight's defense against Dzuman.

Dzuman, 23-6-1 (10), has some names on his resume that will be recognizable by British fans during his nine year career at welter and light middle, including Jawaid Khaliq, James Hare, Jozsef Matolcsi, Eugenio Monteiro and Vladimir Khodokovski. More...

John McDermott, 25-4 (16), will look to improve upon his his July, 2008 performance against British heavyweight champion Danny Williams, 40-7 (31), in which McDermott lost a highly controversial majority decision at Goresbrook Leisure Centre in Dagenham.

In that contest, Williams lost two points for low blows in the 11th and one more in the 12th for intentionally spitting out his gumshield, yet still won a 114-111, 114-113 and 113-113 majority decision victory. More...

Tony Jeffries is out to show that absence has made the punches get harder when he returns home to Sunderland on Saturday.

Britain's Beijing bronze medallist, 1-0, has his second professional fight when he faces German Roy Meissner, 2-9, in a super middleweight four rounder on Frank Maloney's the triple title bill at Crowtree Leisure Centre.

Jeffries, 24, bases himself in Manchester during the week before returning home at weekends to spend time with his family and fiancée, Sarah Kneeshaw. More...

Less than two months after winning the European title, English light middleweight Jamie Moore will be back in action this Saturday, headlining the biggest show this year in Britain.

The 30 year old southpaw, 31-3 (22), makes the first defense of his crown against challenger Roman Dzuman, 23-6-1 (10), at Crowtree Leisure Centre in Sunderland, England. More...

Frank Maloney will stage a sensational triple title card in Sunderland on Saturday May 2 with a special added attraction the homecoming of Olympic hero Tony Jeffries.
