Jack Bodell (Swadlincote) Midland area heavyweight champion v
Carl Gizzi (Rhyl) heavyweight champion of Wales Commentary from the ringside by SIMON SMITH with inter-round summaries by LIAM NOLAN from Nottingham Ice Stadium
Liam Nolan writes: Bodell brings into the ring the experience (short-lived though it was) of having once before fought for the title. Cooper stopped him in two rounds. But at least he knows the atmosphere of a championship fight. And before Cooper caught him with a devastating punch, Bodell had looked capable of causing an upset. Gizzi has never fought for the championship. but he has fought Bodell. He also lost in two rounds. A cut near the eye caused an early stoppage. He is ambitious, and more of a boxing craftsman than Bodell. The mixture could produce a fascinating set-to tonight
