COLIN LYNES DEFEATS LEE PURDY. Pictures now online by Boxing Photographer Leigh Dawney. 09.11.11.

Possibly the fight of the year? What did you think? Two determined boxers dominated the evening’s entertainment at London’s York Hall, Bethnal Green. A show promoted by Matchroom Sport.

PRIZEFIGHTER PICTURES 29.10.11.Choi Tseveenpurev in final against Rhys Roberts. By boxing photographer Leigh Dawney.

Another fantastic event run by Matchroom Sport at the home of British boxing, York Hall, Bethnal Green, London. With a prize fund of £32,000 the stakes were high, the competition tight, with moments of desperation from all boxers as they tasted the glory and status of becoming Prizefighter. The competition with four quarter finals, two semi finals and the penultimate final, found it’s new Featherweight Prizefighter champion, 40 year old Choi Tseveenpurev from Mongolia who defeated a brave and considerably younger 22 year old Rhys Roberts. For me the boxer of the night was George Jupp who put up a brave fight in all of his bouts, but fell short in semi final one.

Photographs are now online to view at www.leighdawneyphotography.com

The results:

Quarter Final One: Lee Glover v Choi Tseveenpurev (Won)

Quarter Final Two:  Lee Jennings v George Jupp (Won)

Quarter final Three: Ian Bailey v Rhys Roberts (Won)

Quarter Final Four: Barrington Brown v Troy James (Won)

Semi Final One: George Jupp v Choi Tseveenpurev (Won)

Semi Final Two: Troy James v Rhys Roberts (Won)
