Carl Wild Vs Matty Clarkson: It was a ‘bloody’ night at Bowlers in Manchester on Saturday night! The Dave Coldwell promoted fight-night headlined the Central Area Light-Heavyweight Title clash between the Champion – Carl Wild of Sheffield and Matty Clarkson of Preston, but an earlier contest between Chris Healey of Stockport and Paul O’Hagan of Gateshead proved to be a blood-bath with Healey spurting blood from a cut eye in the third.

In the main bout, blood flowed again as Clarkson sustained a cut following a clash of heads in the sixth but he looked determined and focussed against a seemingly un-motivated Wild and the Preston boxer clinched the Title with a 98-93 points win.

Also on the Bill, Hosea Burton of Manchester made quick work of Leicester’s Jahmaine Smyle who was on the canvas twice in the opening round. Burton wins by first round TKO.

Carl Wild (Sheffield) v Matty Clarkson (Preston)
BBBofC Central Area Light-Heavyweight Title

This looked a one-way fight for the first three rounds with Clarkson looking the more motivated but the Champion – Wild, picked it up in the fourth round. ‘Born2be Wild’ gets stuck in during the fifth and lands some heavy shots but then seems to ‘switch off’ again.

A clash of heads in the sixth frame sees Clarkson sustain a vertical cut to the left brow and Wild targets it. Clarkson keeps focussed and catches the Sheffield man with a shot just as the bell signals the end of the eighth. It’s a sloppy round nine but both men go at it in the tenth and final round.

Clarkson gets the points win 98-93 to take the Title. He improves to 10 wins (2 by KO) 1 loss and 2 draws.

Wild drops to 14 wins (1 by KO) 22 losses (6 by KO) and 5 draws
