On the under-card of the top of the bill contest between Frankie Gavin and Leonard Bundu was an intriguing heavyweight contest.
The contest pitted the unbeaten #8 WBC contender Lucas Browne (21-0 with 18 by way of knockout) against the unbeaten Andriy Rudenko (24-1 with 16 by way of knockout).
The bout was for the WBA Inter-Continental heavyweight title but, unfortunately, it didn?t quite live up to expectations.
Browne kept his world title ambitions on track with a unanimous 12 round decision with the scores being announced as:-
? 116-112
? 117-112
? 115-113
And all in favour of Browne.
However, if Browne is to be a genuine world title he needs to up his game. For much of the fight he looked slow, ponderous and tired and didn?t for me, do enough to impress.
Heavyweight Hope Browne Wins Again
