COMMONWEALTH BOXING COUNCIL BULLETIN 12Th March 2018 COMMONWEALTH BOXING COUNCIL BULLETIN 12th March 2018 COMMONWEALTH DAY EVENTS – MONDAY 12TH MARCH 2018 The Commonwealth Boxing Council being accredited by the Commonwealth Secretariat as Commonwealth Civil Society, will be represented at 2 events marking the day. The Assistant Secretary, Debbie Down, has been invited to attend the Commonwealth Day Service at Westminster Abbey in the presence of HM Queen Elizabeth II and other members of the royal family, along with representatives of other Commonwealth Civil Societies, the Royal Overseas League, diplomats, youth groups and other individuals and groups connected with Commonwealth Secretariat activities. Later that evening, the Hon Secretary will attend a reception at the Commonwealth Headquarters at Marlborough House in London’s Pall Mall, in the presence of HRH The Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall. CBC RATINGS – WOMEN’S CHAMPIONSHIPS CBC-approved ratings of women boxers will now be available on the CBC website at www.commbc.com. These have been compiled by MS SHIVANA INALSINGH of the Trinidad and Tobago Boxing Board of Control, daughter of current CBC President Dr Calvin Inalsingh, at the request of the CBC Board and Ms Inalsingh has produced an excellent guide to the best women boxers in the Commonwealth currently. With only the second Commonwealth Women’s Championship scheduled to take place on 7th April in the Superwelter division (see ‘Forthcoming Championships’) progress has been slow in establishing these Championships despite having been available for many years now. SARAH PUCEK, the Canadian Brit remains our only current Champion, in the Featherweight division. It is hoped that these ratings will make it easier for promoters to assess who might be available to be matched for the vacant Championships that currently exist. SPRING MEETING – CHAMPIONS, CHALLENGERS AND DEFENCE OBLIGATIONS A small sub-committee of UK based CBC Directors, including the Chairman and noted columnist and international records compiler, ERIC ARMIT, will meet on APRIL 17th 2018 to discuss and produce the latest list of CBC Champions, listed challengers and defence obligations, these to be circulated as soon as possible after the meeting to all interested parties. Any manager or promoter should ensure that nominations have been made in good time beforehand to the Hon Secretary having been endorsed beforehand by their individual CBC member federation. The list will be revised and updated by all attending Directors at the CBC AGM later in the year.

    Dear Don José … I will be missing you and I will never forget how much you did for the world of boxing and for me. Mauro Betti The Committee decided to review each weight class and, when possible, declare some titles vacant.

  • Coyle: I'll Make History in Leeds
    COYLE: I’LL MAKE HISTORY IN LEEDS Tommy Coyle says he will make history in by becoming the first British champion from Hull when he challenges Tyrone Nurse for the Super-Lightweight title at the First Direct Arena in Leeds on July 30, live on Sky Sports. Coyle clash with old amateur foe Nurse is his second fight at 140lbs having made the move from Lightweight in May over six rounds in Manchester. The 26 year old had some memorable moments at 135lbs with his epic fight of the year clash with Daniel Brizuela, brutal second round KO win over Michael Katsidis and stadium showdown with Hull rival Luke Campbell MBE, but Coyle is happy that his first shot at the Lord Lonsdale belt is at a weight that he feels suits him best. “I feel brilliant at Super-Lightweight,” said Coyle. “I’ve been 9st 9lbs since I was 16 years old. When Tyrone and I boxed as amateurs I was 9st 9lbs then and that was ten years ago. That extra five pounds on fight night is going to be a huge difference, I don’t have to take it off in the last week so I think I will be a completely different animal at the weight and you’ll see the difference in the fight. “It’s the prettiest belt out there and it’s every young fighters dream to fight for the British belt. It holds a lot of credibility and I’m really excited to be fighting for it, so I’ll be leaving everything in the ring on July 30.

  • Warrington Tops Huge Leeds Bill on July 30
    WARRINGTON TOPS HUGE LEEDS BILL ON JULY 30 Josh Warrington will headline a huge bill at the First Direct Arena in Leeds on July 30, live on Sky Sports. The unbeaten Leeds star tops the card in his hometown fortress for the sixth time in two years with promoter Eddie Hearn to announce his opponent on Monday. Warrington’s last outing at the First Direct Arena in April saw him defeat the dangerous Japanese Hisashi Amagasa to move to 23-0 and he continues his hunt for a World title shot on July 30. There’s a stacked bill in support with Olympic gold medal hero Luke Campbell MBE back in title action following his brilliant KO win over Gary Sykes in Sheffield in March to land the Commonwealth title. There’s a tasty Yorkshire derby as Huddersfield’s Tyrone Nurse defends his British Super-Lightweight title against Hull’s Tommy Coyle and Birmingham talent Gamal Yafai defends his Commonwealth Super-Bantamweight title against Barnsley’s Josh Wale. Some of Britain’s best are in action in the shape of British Bantamweight king Ryan Burnett, the return of Birmingham Welterweight Frankie Gavin, his local rival and former British champion Sam Eggington and Brixton Heavyweight Dillian Whyte. “This is by far the biggest night of boxing we have held in the Leeds Arena and there’s some excellent match ups,” said Hearn. “Josh will continue his march to a World title and I’m very excited about the all-Yorkshire clash for the British title between Nurse and Coyle. Luke Campbell is looking to climb the World rankings after his impressive win in Sheffield and hot prospect Gamal Yafai will be up against some strong support and a very game and experienced Josh Wale when defending his Commonwealth title.
