Again Eastern Counties champion Nicky McHugh (eight) fought his heart out and looked to have done enough to win, but the decision went to Ipswich's older, heavier Tyreece Hunt. Coach Frank Crosswell felt Nicky definitely did enough to beat his taller, heavier opponent.
Remy Sayer (eight) having his first bout was up against Newark's Josh Dent who had had three bouts. Remy fought excellently but experience told. Russell Smith (21) lost a close decision but looked sharp. Michael Irons (13) and Lucia Graziano (eight) did well but need to work harder in the gym and listen to their coaches. A great day for the 3 Lions fighters.
