Serious beef added to BCB’s Bescot bill

Matty Harris…big punching Coventry heavyweight on stacked show

SOME serious beef has been added to BCB’s exciting “Unleashed” show at Bescot Stadium, Walsall, on November 16, writes PAUL WEBB.

Big hitting heavyweight Matty Harris  - a Coventry colossus who stands 6ft 8ins tall – is one of two top contenders who have been included on the stacked Saddlers bill.

The 24-year-old, signed to promotional powerhouse Wasserman Boxing, has bounced back from his first career loss with back-to-back wins against Amine Boucetta and Yury Bykhautsou. He’s currently 7-1. 
Connor Parker (14-1) will also  get in some much-needed rounds on the show after 20 months out of the ring. The former Midlands light-welter champ, from Woodville, Derbyshire, was scheduled to box in Torquay. After the plug was pulled on that bill he is now boxing much closer to home.
Bloxwich’s unbeaten Ryan Woolridge (10-0) headlines the show in his first eight-round contest. A stacked undercard also features Wolverhampton heavyweight Sonny Clarke (2-0) and Stafford's Ashley Pettigrew (3-1) is set to return to the ring after a year of travelling in Thailand.
Exeter’s Kristine Shergold (7-7) will make the journey up from the southwest for her first fight since losing on points to world champion Rhiannon Dixon.
Jay Jay Tonks (1-0) boxes for the first time this year and amateur sensation Mia Holland, from Wolverhampton, makes her pro debut.
