I was at Hove Town Hall to watch the fight. John was in great shape fighting at light heavy for the first time and really forced the tempo from the first round. The write up's on BoxRec now: http://news.boxrec.com/news/2012/john-a ... -victory-0

I've seen Anthony a few timea and always thought he's a decent fighter, got a good punch on him too when he lets 'em go.

Johns really been giving it a go in the gym lately he's lost weight and really trimmed up he Can cause a few upsets if he keeps his head on the game

I thought he looked in okay shape but come the last round it was Anthony who was looking the fresher. A few more rounds and he may even have forced a stoppage. I think Paddy underestimated Anthony, probably expected him to be content to sit on the backfoot and spoil, but he came to win and Paddy never got going. He can come again though, he's still really young and can put this down as experience.

RE match would be good for maybe a International Masters Title i would put it on 1 of my shows but dont think Paddy sells tickets!!

why would anthony give rematch

[palooka]

Well done to him; he will do well if he's fitter and kept his chin at light heavy he should get some decent wins. He's strong and a good chin but flags at cruiser and sits in a corner winging hard right hand swings. It could be he's better suited to light heavy and if he lands a couple of hard shots may get a few decent stoppage wins. Good to him for sticking with it.
