My favourite boxing photos from the 10-11 season.

Post by REAL_DEAL »

Beast Mode Engaged

Since the season is over in this country (tv wise) till September i thought i would show the forum my best photos from the 10-11 season. I hope to do more next season but it's hard being 3-4 hours near anywhere decent and i lose money most of the fights i attend.

1) Tyson Fury vs Rich Power (York Hall, London Friday 10 September 2010)
Tyson one of my favourite fighters to snap, i have been to most of his fights over in this country. You never know what your going to get each time i snap him. I am glad he doesn't get his fighters out of their early as i can get more snaps of him. Here he is catching Power on the ropes. This photo also made channel 5 website before you watch Fury vs Chisora fight.

2) Steve Molitor vs Jason Booth (Saturday 11 September 2010, (Sunderland)

After staying over in London I travelled all the way up to Sunderland with a friend (took forever), I always wanted to shoot Molitor after watching his fights against Hunter and Booth on tv. Here is booth landing a solid Jab on Booth.

Image

3) John O'Donnell vs Craig Watson (Saturday 19 February 2011, London)

I think this is my favourite shot from the season. I like both fighters faces and it was took right in front of me and i was in the right position. I was disappointed it never got published anywhere but i would travel around the world for that one shot.

Image

4) Lenny Daws vs Ashley Theophane (Saturday 19 February 2011, London)

Ashley Theophane celebrates after beating Lenny Daws on points winning the British title. It was a bad night for Mick losing two stable fighters. I went on the other side to capture this shot. I couldn't of got this on a sky show as i would of been in the way of sky tv crew but as it was on prime time i could.

Image

5) Craig Watson vs Lee Purdy (M.E.N. Arena, Manchester, 16th April 2011)

Barry Hearn nearly commits manslaughter after Lee Purdy up sets the odds against Craig Watson. I am still kicking myself after not backing Purdy again in the rematch.

Image

6) Evgeny Orlov vs Gregory Tony (7th May 2011, London)

Orlov lands to the chin of Tony in the prize fighter tournament, This was my first prizefighter after not going to the previous 18 of them. I thought this was a sure thing for shot of the week in boxing news but it never made it anywhere, still i was pleased for the night on this shot alone.

Image

7) Carl Frampton vs Robbie Turley (4th of June 2011, Wales)

Howard foster pulls Turley off frampton after he takes a rest. Howard is one of the nicest guys i have met in the boxing world, always has time for people and his bribe rate is very low (joking)

Image

8 ) Carl Frampton vs Robbie Turley (4th of June 2011, Wales) Frampton fights his way of the ropes. Frampton is fighter Martinez next month for the European title. I think this is very brave match making and see it as a 50/50 fight. Hopefully the Scott Quigg fight happens soon.

Image

9) Phill Fury vs Peter Vaughan (23rd July 2011, London)


Peter Vaughan hand is raised by the ref after his beats Phill Fury on the undercard, I was on the right side of the ring getting this shot. Vaughan fights in the next Prize fighter. I think he will win it so get your money on him early.

thanks for looking, comments welcome, Thanks for the staff,fighters/fans and tv who make this sport work.

Is that not a picture of Fury vs Rich Power rather than Zack Page?

Sorry for the pedantry - some cracking shots in there!

Superb smudges. The O'Donnell v Watson one is outstanding, and surely the Theophane one got published? Very nice indeed.
