British card filling up

Press Release: Frank Maloney has added two supporting bouts to his show at Dagenham, England on Friday, January 26, 2007. Gary "Hot Stuff" Woolcombe will meet Andrew Facey for the English Light Middleweight title and popular Irishman Brian Magee takes on Andrew Lowe of London's East End in a final eliminator for the British Light Heavyweight title. Woolcombe, 22-0 (7), has marched through good opposition over the last year, outpointing Eugenio Monteiro while stopping both Gilbert Eastman and Lee Murtaugh. After finishing only 1 of his first 13 opponents, "Hot Stuff" has made short work of 6 of his last 8 rivals with 1 disqualification win.
In meeting Andrew Facey, 18-4-1 (5), Woolcombe will be stepping up to his toughest challenge to date. The 34 year old English titlist holds wins over Matthew Macklin, Gilbert Eastman and Darren Rhodes. Facey unsuccessfully challenged Jamie Moore for the British title three years ago. Maloney has also added eBrian Magee, 26-3 (18), to the Goresbrook card and the Belfast southpaw will face Hackney's Andrew Lowe in a final eliminator for the domestic light heavyweight crown. This will be Magee's second outing after a hotly contested stoppage loss last summer at the hands of British and Commonwealth Super Middle Champion Carl Froch. Lowe, 16-1 (1), has fought mostly at cruiserweight.
