30TH September at the Liverpool Olympia – The Old , The New and The Brand New
COURTNEY FRY and MARK MORAN – Both previous title challengers with outstanding Amateur pedigrees who after a bit of time out are back to give one last shot at becoming champions , we expect wins on Friday and then they will be looking for title opportunities.
JOHN QUIGLEY , JAZZA DICKENS , ANOTHONY SMITH , TERRY NEEDHAM – All top prospects who will be out to prove that it wont be to long before they are thought of as being potential champions , the lower weights are moving forward very quickly now so expect title fights next year for these guys.
TOM CARUS , THOMAS CHRISTIAN , NATHAN CLARK – All make their professional debuts on this card.
Tickets priced at £30.00 general and £50.00 ringside for this 9 fight card are available from the boxers , the venue or www.vipbe.co.uk
KENNY ANDERSON – Was the 1st VIP fighter out in the new season and he won with a devastating KO in his home town of Edinburgh . This performance has helped secure a new promotional deal which will be announced this week , this is the least Kenny could have expected after his short notice performance against George Groves and then being ruthlessly dumped by Hatton Promotions.
NICK QUIGLEY – Lost in the final of the L-MW Prizefighter but his stock has risen due to the gutsy performances which saw him victorious in 2 hard fights and the loose narrowly in the final to Robert Lloyd Taylor even though he was physically knackered , the extra rest made a difference in this one.
JEFF THOMAS – Drew in his first fight despite scoring a first round knock down which looked enough to secure a qualification into the semi-final, the left hook was a quality shot and I think helped Jeff decide he is to carry on.
STEVE HARKIN – Lost in first round by split decision to his friend Nick Quigley , it was a great shame that the 2 scousers got drew together.
MIKE ROBINSON – Has entered the next Super-Fly Prizefighter in Liverpool on the 12th October and looks forward to a third match with Ashley Sexton
