Boxing Info: Simone Maludrottu vs Ian Napa

ByBoxing Press 08/03/2007

Opportunity Knocks for 12 fighters who appear on the Simone Maludrottu vs Ian Napa support card at the Goresbrook Leisure Centre in London on Friday 9 March.

Maludrottu and Napa meet to decide the European Bantamweight title on a card that includes the much hyped fifth professional appearance of Scott Belshaw, “The man who was born to punch.”

Belshaw 4-0 (4 KO’s) meets Paul King 5-13-1 (1 KO) over four rounds and the 6’ 7” Irish heavyweight is sure to be focused on nothing but his 32 year old opponent.

The gifted young man knows that boxing is one of those sports where no matter how much forethought and preparation has gone before, just one killer punch can shatter a lifetime’s dream.

A talented modern day heavyweight has the potential to walk a gold paved path; but always on the condition they guard against the ever present possibilities of physical meltdown.

Belshaw, 21, knows he has time on his side to achieve the dream of plying his trade on the World scene.

The Irishman realises that at this early stage of his career there is no room for error but this formidable fighter, with the increasingly impressive record, has the mind frame that many believe will take him to the top.

“I love knocking people out and I love the buzz of the ring,” said Belshaw.

“There is nothing greater than knocking a man to the canvas and knowing afterwards we will still be friends. I am fully aware of what will be coming in my bid for the very top honours.”

Belshaw, the man known as “The White George Foreman,” weighs in for his next step up the boxing ladder at FTM Fitness Factory, Lord Clyde Pub, 9 Wotton Road, Deptford SE8 5TQ.

Frank Maloney Promotions presents “When Opportunity Knocks” at Goresbrook Leisure Centre in Dagenham, London, England on March 9, 2007. Tickets are available by logging onto www.frankmaloney.com or by calling the Box Office at 0871 226 1508 or televised live on Sky TV. If you can’t make it to the fight watch it live on Sky TV!

  • Do we understand that these people are FIGHTING? 03/10/2026
    We watch boxing as if it is just a sport. But do we realize that these people are fighting. Like, literally trying to beat each other to death in the ring? Do we appreciate how different that is? I was sitting back today and watching some old fights and the reality hit me. These people are actually fighting. How amazing and shocking that is at the same time? […]

  • Kugan Should Retire! 16/09/2026
    He’s Eddies mate and I know they’ve been doing interviews since before either of them really had a profile…but Eddie still gives Kugan wayyyyy too much latitude in the interviews that Hearn needs to resonate with the public. Kugan constantly cuts across him, with some meaningless aside, or to tries to get a rubbish ‘gotcha’, for no reason. There are better i […]

    Don’t we? Let’s cut all of the bullshit here. This is the only fight worth a $100 PPV buy, it’s Jai Opetai v David Benavidez. Canelo is in the background now. He is not worthy of paying any attention to at this point and time. Plus, since Crawford is retired, he is not worth mentioning either, even if he comes back to fight Boots… There is no other fight on […]
