JAY Griffiths made it a fantastic four wins from four at Walsall’s Bescot Stadium on Saturday, with a shut-out points win against Dan Belcher in their four-round bout.

The middleweight Baggie Boy who now lives in Wombourne boxed nicely, showing an improved shot selection and advances to the technical side of his game.

Belcher, who was making his professional debut, slowed the action down and gave little in the way of attacking output, never looking likely to trouble the scorecards.

Debutant Rogerson had to settle for a draw with Faure

There was a bit of disappointment for Henry Rogerson, who was forced to settle for a draw on his professional debut. But he will have gained a lot from his four round tear up with Jahfieus Faure.

Bringing an army of fans down from Crewe, there was a superb atmosphere in the venue as the 21-year-old stepped through the ropes.

Lightweight Rogerson started brightly, but Faure was making him fight at a ferocious pace as both men landed solid blows. The South Cheshire ABC fighter was starting to tire as the fight wore on, and Faure sensed an upset. It was a firefight down the stretch, and after four pulsating rounds, the referee couldn’t split them, seeing it 38-38.

Harmitt nails Orton on way to her second straight win

Jasmin Harmitt moved on to two wins from two with points victory over Kerry Orton. The 26-year-old from Dudley Port boxed well throughout and maintained a high work rate with some nice foot movement that kept her well out of Orton’s range.

It was a solid night’s work, and the Southpaw Gym talent was only denied a shutout due to one round being seen even with the referee scoring the contest 40-37.
