Scottish boxing monthly review, June 2022

Thursday 2 June

At St Andrews Sporting Club’s summer show, Josh Sandford moved to 3-0 with a 39-37 points win over tough Ukrainian Mykhailo Sovtus. Bobby Morrel improved to 2-0 with a two round demolition of Michal Ciach, dropping the Pole three times. Glaswegian superflyweight, Michael McGlone, followed up his successful debut with a points win over Marius Vysniauskas. And heavyweight Tommy Welch, son of former British champion Scott Welch, cruised past Jake Darnell over four rounds.

Saturday 11 June

A successful development show for Kynoch Promotions as their up and coming prospects routed experienced journeymen.

Calvin McCord (now 11-0) dominated Naeem Ali over six rounds, 60-54.

Chris Liddell (2-1) beat Luke Merrifield over four rounds, 40-36.

Robbie Graham (2-0) beat Seamus Devlin over four rounds, 39-37.

Kyle Boyd (2-0) beat Dale Arrowsmith over four rounds, 40-36.

John Casey (1-0) had successful debut against Marek Laskowski over four rounds.

Friday 17 June

A special night for Scott Allan (11-6) as he knocked out Marius Vysniauskas in the fifth round of their contest. Allan was able to repay his loyal supporters who have travelled with him across the UK in recent years as his Rivals Gym in Lanarkshire hosted the event. It was a fitting venue, combining Scott’s passion for boxing and community, and well deserved success for one of Scotland’s underrated fighters.

Martin Crossan moved to 4-0 by beating Dmitri Protkunas, and Jake Limond extended his record to 3-0 after dominating John Spencer over four rounds.

Friday 24 June

It’s always good to see boxing in the Highlands, and three young local lads had successful bouts against experienced journeymen in Inverness. Cruiserweight Nathan Levers dominated Edgars Sniedze, super featherweight Adian Williamson beat John Spencer, and lightweight George Stewart eased past Paul Holt. All three boxers won 40-36 and improved their records to 2-0.
