- Parker v Saglam, the writing was on the wall from round 1. Parker caught Saglam with a good one in round one, and frankly I think Sagalam was not interested in going any further. The punch that knocked Saglam down in round 2, lifted him right off his feet. He was lucky to beat the count, but was in no fit state to carry on, the towell came in, referee Conway took no notice of it, and promptly and rightly stopped the bout, much to Saglams relief.
