International fight card featuring rising British stars. Derek Angol 190 lbs beat Andy Straughn 190 lbs by KO in round 8 of 12 to retain his Commonwealth (British Empire) Cruiserweight Title (1st defense of Angol)
Wandsworth local Gary Mason won a points decision over his American opponent in a 10 rounder. Gary Mason was diagnosed with a detached retina following this fight, which lead to a short retirement. He was cleared to fight again following corrective surgery.
Like many of these fight cards, there were often plenty of changes to the advertised cards due to pull-outs/injuries etc & late replacements had to be found at short notice. Check 'BoxRec' for final bout details.
