Re: Anthony Yarde v Tony Averl - Box nation 24th Feb 2018
Heavyweight prospect Daniel Dubois (6-0, 6 KOs) fights at the historical East London venue for the first time in his professional career as he defends his Southern Area belt against Queensborough’s DL Jones (8-0-1).
The Peacock Gym powerhouse claimed the title after knocking AJ Carter out cold in the opening round with a massive right hand at the Copper Box Arena back in September and is hoping to start 2018 with another explosive ending.
Rising Super-Featherweight star Zelfa Barrett takes on former British Super-Featherweight Title challenger Ronnie Clark as he fights in the capital for the first time.
'Brown Flash' (19-0, 12 KOs), holder of the English Title following his win against Chris Conwell back in October, hopes another victory here will propel him towards a new title challenge. A product of the renowned Collyhurst and Moston boxing club, many pundits believe Barrett is a World Champion in waiting.
Clark (20-4-2, 10 KOs) has only lost to respected fighters, including Martin Joseph Ward and Craig Evans, and will provide a good test for Barrett as the Mancunian builds towards a future showdown with stablemate Lyon Woodstock Jr.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
