Smelters 'show down' show

Smelters ‘Showdown Show’

The National Smelting Co Amateur Boxing club (NSC ABC) known as the Smelters held their fourth and final show of the season on Thursday the 12th of June at a packed Avonmouth Rugby Club sponsored by Marshall Grit Blast.
The show saw the Smelters and other Bristol clubs matched versus Brighton, Crawley & St Gerards in a team match billed as ‘The Southern Showdown’ where the teams competed for the ‘Bristol v Brighton Challenge Cup’ sponsored by R & M Building Services. There where also supporting bouts of Smelters boxers against local clubs on this twelve bout bill.

Informed Smelters head coach Garry Cave “Opening the show for us was 11-year-old Blake Bowler matched against Sydenham’s Callum James in a skills contest. Both young boxers displayed a full array in both defensive and attacking skills and after three rounds of keenly contested action both lads had their hands raised as there’s only winners in skills bouts.

Second on the bill was 11-year-old southpaw Jerry ‘Mighty Mouse’ Connors pitched against George Shelldrake of Watchet ABC. Connors boxed on the front foot and took the fight right to Shelldrake. After three rounds of non-stop action Connors won a unanimous decision and the first win for the host club. Said Cave “That’s two wins for Jerry in two weeks and two very good performances he’s fulfilling the potential he’s shown in the gym and I think this lad is one to keep an eye out for.

In the third bout 13-year-old welterweight Sam ‘Bigmac’ Ash boxed in the first team bout of the evening versus St Gerard’s John Hunt. Said Cave “Full respect and thanks to St Gerard’s they traveled all the way from Sussex on a mid week night with just the one junior, it’s that kind of dedication and support that allows clubs like ours to put these boxing shows on.”
Reported Cave” In the opener Hunt showed superior boxing skills and punch variation to take the lead, I thought Sam was in for a boxing lesson. But the second and third rounds where all Sam Ash as he began to find the target with straight punch combinations as Hunt was clearly feeling the pace under the constant pressure” Sam Ash winning unanimous points and two wins out of two for the Smelters stable.

Fourth on the bill and hoping to maintain the run of winning results was Jerry’s older brother Tom ‘Tucker’ Connors matched against a very tough pressure fighter in Lewis Bremner of Wells ABC.
Informed Cave ‘Tuckers’ had a great season winning seven out of eight bouts and only losing in the Championship Quarter finals after winning the Western Counties Title. Tucker used his boxing skills with quick footwork and hand speed to pick off the front foot boxing of Bremner. We had a game plan to box on the outside, side step and counter as Bremner pressed forward and Tucker executed the plan perfectly to take a points win” This was good night for the Connors with both brothers winning on their home show.

Fifth on the bill was an all Bristol affair with 14-year-old light welter weight NSC’s Jason Davies boxing Empire’s Tim Cutler. What a hard fought bout this turned out to be with both boxers matching each other punch for punch, at times Cutler looked the stronger as he edged ahead with his power packed jabs that had bloodied Davies’s nose.
Said Cave “This was the bout of the night with both young lads giving it everything they had, it was an absolute war! Cutler won a majority and deserved decision and was awarded best boxer of the night with Davies picking up the best Sportsman’s trophy. Jas really has improved this season he’s come on so much over his last few bouts I’m sure this lad will go on to be another champion for the club.

In the sixth bout 14-year-old Patchway Schoolboy Tyler ‘Tiger’ Davies was boxing Connor Murphy of Watchet ABC in they’re fourth encounter. Davies had narrowly beaten Murphy to take the Western Counties title but had lost another close bout to Murphy at the Wells show three weeks before, making it two wins to one for Murphy. Said Cave “ We lost Tyler’s original opponent in the lead up to the show, but thanks to the fantastic support of Watchett boxing club where able to match this up a couple of days before. It’s always a close bout and this one proved to be no different with Davies winning with the narrowest of margins to square the series up at two bouts apiece. The Tigers really come on this season and moves to 8 wins from 11 bouts plus a Western Counties title”.

Bout 11 and the final bout of the night to feature an NSC boxer, saw senior welterweight Sam Mogg v Rob Fernley of Trowbridge. With Fernley hoping to get back to winning ways after a long lay off.
Said Cave “ We thought the Moggster was in for a really tough night as Fernley is a very experienced boxer and we’d heard he had a wicked left hook. So we’d worked on a plan to nullify his hook but it never came in to play as Sam buckled Fernley about 1 minute into round one with a rib bending body shot, fair dos he come off his knees three times to beat the count, but every time he got nailed again, but after three counts in a round that’s your lot and the ref called an end to it. Sam really can dig to the body and once you’ve been nailed with a sickener like that it’s very hard to comeback. I’m sure Rob will get back to his best as it was a tough bout to come back to after a long lay off.

12.Terry Richards Southmead WON PTS V Dave Murphy Brighton
Brighton Team Coach, Brian Harvey, was delighted with his teams win and the event as a whole and said “both teams of boxers gave it everything and this produced some very keenly contested bouts, the pick of the Sussex performances for me were Richard Kaplan’s first round stoppage victory and the impressive debut of Crawley ABCs Leon Bolt. Dave Murphy and Terry Richards of Southmead put on another great contest, which for me was the bout of the evening. The boxing was of an excellent quality and the evening was excellently organised by NSC, this is our forth trip to Bristol in 12mths and we always receive a warm welcome, we look forward to welcoming the Bristol lads back when we defend the cup next season!"
