A descent night of boxing to begin despite the first round knock-out of the first bout I had missed preoccupied momentarily browsing through the crowd for potential Ring Girls after receiving word from the Ring Announcer there would be no scantily dressed Women to flaunt their hour glass framed bodies, holding up signs to indicate the round.
The situation was soon solved with volunteer Ring Girls in from the crowd, luckily they were attractive 'phew'.Okay now to the important matter the fights.
Well there was solid action throughout the night, however none of the matches were nearly as competitive and exhilarating as the Main Event which topped off the night Tye Fields 36 (47-4-0)
vs. Raphael Butler 27 (34-9-0) coming into the bout scheduled 10 rounds. The fight filled with plenty of back and forth action Butler landing a stiff blow in the first round shocking the crowd .Fields regained his composure though on wobbly legs for the round managing to recover easily with a little clinching. Fields eventually concede to box to win instead of brawl a wise choice.
Working behind an active jab disturbing Butler's advancing Fields pinned Butler against the ropes.
Despite Butlers impressive versatile defensive skill consisting of parries, slipping and cross-blocking the pressure began to overwhelm.Fields impressed with relentless combinations lining the the target with jab.Butler frozen on the ropes summoned one last effort a hurling upper-cut missing by inches,before succumbing to the onslaught as refer Len Koivisto stopped the bout 2:37 in the sixth round.An exciting fight that made noise not just the crowd the thudding of the gloves to.
