Well I think that'll be me calling it a day for this evening's action, very enjoyable fight capped with a devastating KO punch from Tony Oakey who isn't even considered a puncher. Moving to Johnny Eames' stable seems to have worked well for him.

Anyhow, I'll be back tomorrow night for the Khan St Clair fight, but Jennings v Minter also looks a goodie worth looking forward too, thanks to Lee.

Nighty Night.

Action for Jennings-Minter set to get underway in just over one hours time .

[leftylee]

Firstly to the RBR is fellow scouser for myself Derry "Golden Boy, AKA Dirty" Matthews v Nikoloz Berkatsashvilli which is a warm-up bout for Derry however if he loses this he get's stripped of his WBU belt and stripped of the mandatory challenger position for the EBU belt.

When I mention Nikoloz's name I will say NB as it will take ages to type it.

Derry says "I've trained hard for this fight and I am treating this as for my world title, I also want to show my skills in front of the capital."

Action to follow after the break.
