Johnny Fisher vs Dave Allen: Undercard and Main Event Results on May 17

John Hedges vs Nathan Quarless

In the final fight of Before the Bell it was John Hedges (11-0, 3 KOs) vs Nathan Quarless (13-2, 0 KOs) for the vacant English cruiserweight title. Hedges quickly took the centre of the ring and worked effectively behind his lead hand for the rest of the opening round.

He maintained the distance well, with Quarless struggling to find his rhythm. The Liverpudlian had moments of success when he stepped in and landed clearly, but they were too few and far between.

Despite Quarless attempting to apply pressure, Hedges controlled the tempo of the fight. Both fighters heard the final bell, but Hedges was the only winner, and the judge’s cards reflected that with scores of 99-92, 98-92 and 97-93, all in favour of “The Gentleman.” A comfortable victory for the Harlow native.

Taylor Bevan vs Juan Cruz Cacheiro

The exciting Taylor Bevan (4-0, 4 KOs) was next in the super middleweight division against Juan Cruz Cacheiro (7-5, 3 KOs). Bevan got off to a good start, taking the centre of the ring and varying his shots impressively.

Cacheiro tried to trade punches with Bevan in the second, but the accuracy and power from the Southampton native were too much and the referee soon stepped in to wave the fight off, awarding Bevan the victory by second round TKO.

Leli Buttegieg vs Novak Radulovic

It was the turn of the middleweights next, with the exciting Leli Buttegieg (9-0, 3 KOs) facing Novak Radulovic (20-13-1, 8 KOs). Buttegieg started well and took the centre of the ring, looking to establish his jab. A big left hook from the Londoner stiffened his opponent’s legs, who just about stayed on his feet and made it to the end of the opening round.

The second round saw continued dominance from Buttegieg, who landed a huge right uppercut-left hook combination that stunned his opponent, who ate another hook before falling to the canvas. The Serbian was ultimately saved by the bell.

The London fighter continued to pick his shots well into the third without much coming back, and the referee had seen enough, stepping in to wave the fight off. It was a very impressive performance from “The Maltese Monster,” who showed poise and composure throughout, winning by TKO.

Shannon Ryan vs Fara El Bousairi

Shannon Ryan (9-1, 1 KOs) vs Fara El Bousairi (10-6, 3 KOs) kicked off the night in the women’s super flyweight division. During the first three rounds, Ryan boxed well and moved in and out of range effectively.

Ryan scored a controversial knockdown in the third round, but continued her dominance into the fourth, landing the right hand almost at will.
Bousairi tried to apply pressure over the next few rounds, but Ryan proved elusive, picking her shots and moving well. The Spanish fighter looked to plant her feet and land one big shot, but struggled to find Ryan.

El Bousairi gave everything she had in the final round, but “Kaos” proved too slick and continued to move and box impressively. It went to the scorecard, which read 77-74 in favour of the Brit.
