Arthur won the first 2 rounds without a shadow of a doubt,he boxed Booth's head off by using his advantage hight and reach,but Booth came out in the third round and started throwing leather as his old self and what Arthur did wrong was get in with close quarters with Booth and trade with him.If Arthur kept his distance and boxed by using his long jab and staying out of Booth's firingline he would have maybe won it.It was a great fight and massive cridit to both boxers.Their've both had their ups and downs outside the ring in life and are a credit to the dommestic level.Booth should go for a european title next and Arthur should crack on and keep fighting.I remember Arthur boxing alot in my local town here in the north east of england about 8 years ago and i've always rated him especially at the dommestic level,but i lost track of him due to him going out of the big dommestic scene in boxing(for whatever reason)Great fight.I would say it was really close but maybe edge it to Booth as his work rate during half way through the 12 rounded paid off and edged it.Shame to have a loser but both boxers were both winners that night for the skills their show.
Well done lads,entertaining fight!
