Joyce-Wallisch undercard results from England

Denzel Bentley TKO6 Mick Hall... Denzel "2 Sharp" Bentley (13-0) took a step up in opposition with his middleweight clash against Mick Hall (15-3).  Hall found the mark in the first with a couple of shots that got Bentley’s attention, but Bentley would end the round with his hands down, hunting his opponent out.  Bentley opened the second with a stiff jab, before starting to swing with evil intention as he sought out the finish. The knockout wasn’t forthcoming but the Peacock man did a good job of establishing his power and dominance. The third round carried on in much the same fashion, with Bentley throwing power shots at will. As the pace began to show on the face of Hall, Bentley was able to close the round with a period of sustained pressure that his opponent was lucky to see the other side of. A scrappier fourth saw Hall land some good shots of his own, but Bentley maintained good pressure of his own to claim a tight round. In the fifth, Bentley started in orthodox after several rounds experimenting with southpaw attacks. A slower round saw Hall have more success as the pace began to tell on Bentley. Hall took more explosive shots as Bentley ramped up his attacks in round six, with a particularly stiff right hand opening up Hall’s right eye. Hall did his native Preston proud by seeing the round out on his feet, but he was not allowed to see the seventh round by his corner.
 
Chris Bourke W10 Ramez Mahmood... The vacant Southern Area super bantamweight title was on the line as Chris Bourke (8-0) took on Ramez Mahmood (11-1). An evenly matched open round saw Mahmood attempt to establish the jab early but also saw success for Bourke as he attacked his foe’s body. The Peacock man stepped up his attacks in the second, blitzing his opponent from the opening bell. The pace slowed as the round progressed, but it was a good round for Bourke and a clear victory. Bourke’s usual crispness was on display in the third but Mahmood was able to vary his attacks as the round went on, landing an uppercut from up close that caught Bourke’s attention.  The fourth and fifth round were close affairs with Bourke landing some solid body shots to edge himself ahead on the BT Sport pundits’ scorecards in the fourth, before a scrappier fifth allowed Mahmood to regain some ground. The natural ability of Bourke started to show in the sixth as he began to move around his opponent effortlessly, picking his shots well and continuing his work to Mahmood’s body. As the fight moved on through the seventh, eight and ninth the gap on the scorecards only increased between the tough Mahmood and a classy Bourke. Significant shots were short on the ground, but Chris Bourke showed wonderful footwork and head movement, whilst picking his shots with all the skill of a soon-be-crowned champion. Mahmood pressed the action in the final round, leaving both men looking nervy as we went to the scorecards. The referee gave it 96-94 to the now 8-0 Chris Bourke.
 
Louie Lynn TKO2 Monty Ogilvie... In characteristic fashion, featherweight Louie "Loco" Lynn (7-0) stormed out at the opening bell. By the time he landed a left hook to stun Monty Ogilvie (9-2), the round looked to be escaping the Scottish Ogilvie. Lynn soon followed with a barrage of punches, leaving Ogilvie to try and contain his younger foe. Despite game attempts to spoil Lynn’s ascendancy, the round was a clear 10-8 to Lynn after a conclusive knockdown. Round 2 started in much the same way, and whilst Ogilvie would occasionally throw back, there was nothing to concern Lynn, who soon had his opponent down once more, and this time the referee waved it off.
 
Henry Turner W4 Chris Adaway... The second bout of the evening saw Henry Turner (2-0) take a late-notice140-pound bout against veteran campaigner Chris Adaway (10-68-4).  Turner settled into the first round well, delivering a composed performance from behind his southpaw jab. Adaway, a game scrapper who had only been finished 8 times out of 82 contests, showed why he was such a tough man to get out early. In the second, Turner continued the good work by allowing Adaway to launch his own attacks before countering with precise movement and powerful combinations. The third round was another decisive victory for Turner, though as he opened up his attacks he did have to take a few of Adaway’s best efforts. As the round came to a close, Turner scored a knockdown to ensure he was on the way to a shutout victory. In the fourth round, Adaway decided to take the fight to Turner but ‘The Showman’ was able to evade capture and continued to pepper his opponent with shots of his own. Adaway was able to avoid being finished but could not stop Turner from improving his record to 3-0. source for all results: queensberry promotions
