Matthew Hatton v Scott Woolford
8 x 3 Welterweight Contest
This was to be Hattons’ first fight under new trainer Lee Beard. Having suffered a defeat to Craig Watson in May, Hatton now fights out of Bobby Rimmer’s Boxing Academy.
It was a tough, close contest, Woolford having being put on the canvas by Hatton, though protests suggest it was more of a bungling over. Undeterred by a cut to the right eye, “Magic Matthew Hatton” outpointed Scott “The Gent” Woolford and improves to 34-4 (13).

An excited Ajisafe improves to 6-0 (2).
