Sunny Edwards vs. Hugo Rosendo Guarneros - 14 September 2019

Post by Ruthless-RKO »

Queensberry Promotions return to York Hall on Saturday September 14 with a triple bill of title fights starring some of British boxing’s finest prospects, live on BT Sport.

Croydon’s Sunny Edwards (12-0, 4 KOs) drops down in weight to challenge Mexico’s Hugo Rosendo Guarneros (16-2-2, 8 KOs) for the vacant IBF International flyweight crown at the famous East London venue.

Brad Foster (11-0-1, 4KOS) makes the second defence of his British super bantamweight title against Lucien Reid (8-0-1, 4KOs).

Dec Spelman (16-2, 8KOs) risks his English light-heavyweight championship against Shakan Pitters (12-0, 4KOs).

And, in a magnificent British light-heavyweight title eliminator, expect fireworks when Zak Chelli (7-0, 3KOs) comes up against Kody Davies (9-0, 3 KOs).

Edwards said: “I must be making a name for myself in Mexico because this is the third boxer from there I’ve faced.

“I haven’t looked at him because I say, ‘Yes’ to any opponent I am offered. As long as my trainer Grant Smith is fine with the opponent, I am.”

Edwards who has been campaigning at super-flyweight added: “Going down to flyweight is another new adventure, but I can make the weight nicely and show what I am all about.”

Lichfield’s Foster, 21, won the British title by beating Josh Wale on points in March before stopping Ashley Lane in the final round at Stevenage in May.

The former kick boxer now faces the challenge from accomplished former amateur star Reid.

“He is a good fighter and I don’t expect anything less with him fighting me for the British title,” said the champion of his challenger.

“He’s had a good amateur background and knows how to fight, so I will have to be at my best and I know I will win on the night.”

Reid, who recently teamed up with new trainer Alan Smith in Bromley said: “I now have the perfect team to capitalise and winning this title will mean so much.

“Brad is accomplished and well schooled, but I have boxed his style and every other one all over the world as an amateur. That will be the difference in this fight.”

Spelman will be seeking revenge after losing to Pitters last November in a Ultimate Boxxer competition, which his rival eventually won.

Scunthorpe’s Spelman said: “We fought over three rounds and obviously tasted a bit of each other, so we know what we are both about and it will be interesting. I am looking forward to it.

“That is where I feel comfy over the longer distance. I am mentally strong, I hit hard and carry my power all the way through.”

Birmingham’s Pitters added: “What happened at Ultimate Boxxer counts for nothing and I am not even thinking of that win against Dec.

“I’m just grateful for the opportunity and commend Dec for picking me as a defence, because there are easier fights.”

Fulham’s Chelli who never shirks a challenge has now moved up to light-heavyweight.

Last October he beat former amateur star Umar Sadiq on points and in April won the Southern area super-middleweight crown against Jimmy Smith.

Now he comes up against former Team GB elite amateur Davies, who has also made an impressive and unbeaten start in the pro ranks.

Chelli says: ”Basically I am 21 and still growing. The weight was an issue for me in the Umar Sadiq fight and it was an even bigger issue against Jimmy Smith, but I wanted that title.

“I like to have these fights against undefeated boxers. It is exciting and it is what the public want. They don’t want a predictable fight, do they?"

Emerging Welsh prospect Davies, 25, added: “I’m over the moon with this fight being made.

“Thanks to SJAM & allegedly For making it happen. Everyone is finally gonna see what a focused, motivated Kody Davies is capable of, and it’s far more than domestic level.

“This is a nice little stepping stone for me and a nice route to burst onto bigger title fights.”


Also in action on the talent stacked bill Harvey Horn (6-0, 2KOs), Boy Jones Jr (18-3-1, 8KOs), Jake Pettitt (6-0, 1KO), James Branch Jr (5-0, 1KO), Mark Chamberlain (3-0, 2KOs), Umar Sadiq (6-1, 3KOs), Caoimhin Agyako (4-0, 1KO), Mickey Burke Jr (1-0) and Chris Bourke (4-0, 4KOs).

Yeah, good domestic bill. Really like Davies vs Chelli and Spelman vs Pitters.

Interesting to see that Edwards is dropping down a weight, it seems he can't get anyone to fight him for the British title at Super Fly, so he'll probably be looking at the winner of Selby vs Harris.

Really good domestic level card. Well matched fights which should be competitive. Hopefully it holds together

It's nice to see as well.

Got a UB rematch in there too. Instead of having our British boys fighting random international boxers, they're fighting each other.

Never seen Guarneros before but should be a routine win for Edwards but as his brother found out last week these unknown Mexicans can be dangerous, Guarneros has 8 KOs in his 12 wins so carries a bit of a dig, Sunny probably has even less power than Charlie but I think he's a more well schooled boxer, a lot to like about him, looking forward to seeing him step up

In other action:

•A pair of unbeatens look to take the next step, as Brad “The Blade” Foster (11-0-1, 4 KOs) will defend his British and Commonwealth super bantamweight titles in a 12-rounder against Lucien Reid (8-0-1, 4 KOs). A young pro who has sparred the likes of WBA super flyweight world champion Kal Yafai, Foster hopes to close out his banner year with a win against Reid, a 25-year-old London native.

•Light heavyweight prospect Zak Chelli (7-0, 3 KOs), a 21-year-old London native, will fight fellow unbeaten Kody Davies (9-0, 3 KOs) in a high-stakes bout scheduled for 10 rounds.

•Dec Spelman (16-2, 8 KOs) will make the first defense of his English light heavyweight title against Shakan Pitters (12-0, 4 KOs) in a 10-round showdown. Pitters defeated Spelman via three-round unanimous decision last November as part of the Ultimate Boxxer II tournament. Pitters knocked down Spelman in the opening round.

•Lightweight prospect Mark Chamberlain (3-0, 2 KOs) will see action in a four-rounder against Lee Connelly (7-48-4, 0 KOs).

Getting a Paul Butler vibe from Sunny. Looks good vs Overmatched opponents, where his movement and speed is too much... But got a feeling when he steps up he'll struggle like crazy
