Got to mention Denis Varsaxa the Belorussian. Got to have the hardest head in NATO - he is fooking nails. Unbeleivable spinning backfist he knocked out Thongchailek in the 8-1 semi final after already knocking out Stevie Meikle in the quarters. Then went on to have an elbow fest with Craig Jose in the final.
Craig caught him with so many right elbows that I couldn't believe that he was still standing at the end. The crowd was going so fooking wild that none of us heard the final bell and we'd actually thought Craig had won by Tony stopping the fight! Absolute cracker.
Caddens fight was shaping up nicely and was living up to the hype in every respect! Must've been a few thousand people there ALL singing and clapping to the Proclaimers on his ring entrance! There was a better turn out at POS than one of their gigs (so I'm told lol!!!!). That ring entrance was worth the ticket fee alone. Cadden caught Rung with a right cross to score a first knockdown, but not before Rung had worried us with a fantastic body kick. It was all over after a sickening elbow which had you in two minds - fantastic for Cadden and us, but worried for Rung who knew immediately that it was over. A worrying few minutes until the doctors gave him the ok.
Well done Rich and sorry I never got chance to talk to you later.
Fighters that stood out for me: Tommy Young who mullered Andrew O'Briens left thigh to a pulp and fought his own fight throughout. John Douglas, who never got flustered by a Belgian fighter who was in there for a scrap and every punch he threw was potential knockout material. Cool and calm - good fight. Dean James was brilliant, glad I've got to see him in the flesh now.
First time I've been to a Scotland show and was impressed by the standard. Excellent!
Was a long show and was gutted that we couln't stay to see the last 3 fights - long drive back to York.
