Have a look at these uh great shots from birmingham.
Speaking of england.
Let’S move over to wolverhampton where this weekend ollie cooper, is ready to let his lens go when he chases a maiden pro tko at the fourth time of asking he set for further ring time as part of bcb promotion show in wolverhampton at the hangar events venue On friday night that’s may 6th, it’s been a learning curve for the 21 year old southpaw, who debuted last october.
After previously, going close to the top of domestic honors as an amateur.
He reached the national final in the english youth championships as part of an amateur run that saw him amass 26 bytes with 18 victories among them.
His pro bow saw him out point double centurion kevin mccauley by a points landslide, winning all four rounds to register a 40-36 whitewash.
He since tackled paul, cummings and josh cook vanquishing, both through a 40-37 points verdict dropping just a share of one round in each contest.
Cooper from canuck reckons he’s developed over the course of those pro experiences and has used his latest training camp to focus on punching power.
He’S also of the opinion that he’s filling out his six foot, four inch frame with a height advantage over opponents in the middleweight division, already apparent cooper, said no disrespect to josh cook and it wasn’t easy.
But i thought i was able to sit back and box a bit more, which was nice and that allowed me to dictate the pace i felt like.
I got back on the front foot more and showed more some dominance, which proves that i’m adapting to the pro style and trying to change from being amateur.
I’Ve worked more in this game on being aggressive and i’m feeling a lot fitter and stronger.
So the plan is to get the stoppage if the opportunity comes along, i’m only 21 and maybe i’m a late developer in terms of my man – strength coming through, but surely it’s getting there now, although it’s nowhere near 100, i’m feeling a lot more comfortable and sparring.
I’M not getting pushed back or being bullied by my opponents, i’m improving all the time good for him, good friend, good stuff, all right.
Let’S move over to orlando florida, where conor coyle is going to talk to again antonio todd a day after that fight on 7th of may, like most, who loved the sweet signs, undefeated middleweight connor, the kid coyle was fully engaged in the katie taylor, amanda serrano fight Recognized as the biggest in women’s boxing history, taylor serrano took place in front of more than 19 000 fans at a sold out madison square garden on the weekend of the first time.
A female fight headlined at the mecca of boxing following four fast pace and competitive rounds, surrounded rock daily in the fifth, with a left hook, followed by a left cross taylor, was in bad shape and nearly tasted.
The canvas for the first time in a career but managed to finish the round on her feet, as we all know so, going back to conor coyle.
What did he say about this? What an incredible fight that was major credit of both women.
He said who trained with taylor in dublin when they were both amateurs katie really had to overcome a lot of adversity against serrano, especially in the fifth round.
Katie showed incredible heart and came through like a champion she’s, a true warrior and a great inspiration for me.
Heading into the most important fight of my career coyle by the way is 15-0 with seven knockouts meets antonio todd.
As i said in a 10 round contest for the naba middleweight title saturday may 21st at the kharib royal in orlando florida.
Coyle todd airs, live on bali sports network as part of the enter box championship boxing series at 9, 00 pm.
