Ted Cheeseman W12 Sam Eggington... With his back against the wall and his livelihood in the balance, former British junior middleweight champion Ted Cheeseman gave it everything he had in defeating Sam Eggington by unanimous decision (116-113, 116-113, 115-114) from Matchroom's headquarters in Brentwood, England. It was Cheeseman's first win in 22 months when he beat Asinia Byfield in October 2017. DAZN News scored the fight for Cheeseman,115-113. Cheeseman (16-2-1, 9 KOs) started out slow as Eggington was landing the harder shots and demonstrated better movement. But "The Big Cheese" kicked into high gear from the second round and kept the momentum throughout by staying on the inside and beating Eggington to the punch while not allowing his opponent to work from the outside. The 24 year-old had chances to put Eggington (28-7, 17 KOs) away in the second and eighth rounds after staggering him with right hands but chose to continue on with a disciplined game plan. That nearly cost him in the final round as Eggington came out with reckless abandon. He cornered Chesseman with 45 seconds remaining and stunned him with a right hand. Cheeseman weathered the storm and made it to the final bell to notch the win. source: dazn news / written by Steven Muelhausen
