OHARA DAVIES (18-1-0, 14 – UK – aged 26)destroyed WBC International defending champion Paul Kamanga in two rounds to become the new title holder. The powerful Hackney man secured a stunning second-round stoppage win against the defending champ to lift the crowd to their feet.

Not only did Davies bag the WBC international Silver super-lightweight. The powerful Hackney man secured a stunning second-round stoppage win against the defending champ to lift the crowd to their feet. Davies used the first round to work out his angles with the awkward looking Kamanga. Adopting a back-foot stance and firing out a left jab, there wasn’t much between the two, but Davies’ more measured style would have caught the judges’ eyes. By the second round it was all over and we had a new belt-holder. Kamanga was starting to feel just how power Davies had – but continued to want to try and trade.
