Professional Boxing in NZ

[craigyid14]

Looking at boxrecs schedule for NZ, its looks pretty good. All the big guns out, just a few too many TBA's but always hoping for the best. Add to that a future Parker bill (if his next fight will be in NZ). The summers looking good.

Turns out Bowyn Morgan is fighting Daniel Roy Maxwell for the NZ Title

So has Cairo George vacated then?

Must be, you were right.

Right? I'm a little surprised, to say the least George has vacated rather than fight either of these.

He's only three weeks away from having it stripped for not defending for 12 months anyway

Clarence is on a long losing streak but its still a tough debut for the lad.

Its a strange one for Sam Rapira to take, especially over four. I remember Anthony Taylor fought Aung Sanda over 4, and only drew. You couldn't score the bout any other way it was 2-2 in rounds. It looks bad on Taylors record when you see it as a draw with a guy who had an 0-1 pro record. It doesn't show that Sanda had good amateur pedigree a bit like Croft's 1-0 pro record but kick boxing background. Banana skin and I reckon will be a draw.
