World Welterweight Title

Tommy Ryan (23-1-0)(16)(Holder) V Billy Maber (12-4-0)(9)

Ryan makes his eighth defence of the title, he last defended it ten months ago.

This is the first meeting of the pair.

Round 1 - There were no odds offered by the bookies pre fight, it looks like they were right. Ryan (left) connected with everything he threw, Maber (right) looks dejected already Ryan 10 - 9.

Round 2 - A sparring session for Ryan, Joe Walcott and Billy Smith are ringside, they will surely provide a bigger test for the champ. Ryan 20 - 18.

Round 3 - Three more big right hands from Ryan and referee Caster has seen enough.

Ryan totally outclassed his man. The Champion stated that he will likely make another defence of his title before being challenged by the official number one contender around year end.
