Brown came out in the last and threw everything in his arsenal in an exhilarating round of top class amateur boxing, Brown displayed lovely head movements to evade punches with returning uppercuts that jarred Talukdar’s head back that drew gasps from the crowd.
The Nottingham man hung in there and gave every ounce of energy that he had to try to convince the judges he should be the victor, at the very death both boxers went hammer and tongs throwing continuously at each other that had the crowd on their feet and cheering at the top of their voices. The decision was in the judge’s hands, a split verdict given in favour of Talukdar, Brown couldn’t have given any more than he did and was extremely unlucky to have missed out.
Winners on the night was Lyndon Tyzack Morley who made his fighting debut against tall Dylan Etherington of the Hoyles Mill Police Boys ABC.

Hide AdLyndon was on the front foot from the beginning with Etherington opting not surprisingly to box from range. Tyzack Morley took the fight to his Yorkshire adversary delivering spiteful combinations to the body and head.
Etherington showed good work from range that made it difficult at times for Lyndon to get close, who displayed some exemplary head movements that made his opponent miss. This was a very tight affair with both boxers having their successes, a split points decision was given in favour of the Boston lad who couldn’t hide his delight at the verdict.
Vienna Barry continued her rich reign of form as she was matched with Jackie Webster of the Norwich City ABC as she was on the right side of a split decision win in an action packed contest, Vienna displayed aggressive tendencies as she mixed hard punches to the head and body of the Norwich fighter as she boxed on the back foot, Webster displayed some good foot movements as she attempted to pick Barry off using the big ring to her advantage.
Barry with the crowd behind her was relentless in her pursuit in gaining victory and so it proved with her deserved points decision. Alfie Doughty was unfortunate in his contest against Percy Manning who started the contest brightly causing Doughty problems early on, once he had settled, Alfie began to get into his groove and with Manning becoming increasingly tired in the latter parts of the rounds the Boston fighter had some good success, landing punches to the head and body, the judges respectfully saw it differently and awarded a points decision to the March boxer.
