From what i seen of it, pretty good night of action.
Despite promoter showsport being let down on every level by the Italian team, pull outs, no shows, over weight, failed medicals replacements were found and put in a good account of themselves for the most part.
Mr Dale Wood........ all i can say mate is that you have one of the biggest hearts in the sport after what can only be described as a World class effort.
You surpassed most peoples expectations, taking the fight at only 22 hours notice.
3 1/2 years out of the ring and probably only 50% fit because you were 5 weeks away from your 5 round comeback fight. You turned in a blinder having Brian hurt in the first and you were ahead on all three scorecards going into the 10th where your body could carry you no more.
If that is a ring rusty, out of shape Dale Wood all I can say is one word.............................. REMATCH!
Taking nothing away from Brian Aston because he is a great guy and thoroughly deserves his success but there is definitely unfinished business between the two of you and I think alot of people would want to see that again.
I have nothing but respect for you my friend and I and all of USKA salute you on a fantastic effort.
Congratulations also to my own Qasim 'The Dream' Nisar winning the ISKA European Amateur title by Unanimous decision winning every round on the cards. Not a bad performance and good to go the five rounds again.
It was good experience also having to deal with a damaged hand mid fight and having to make the adjustments needed to still walk away a winner. As always really proud of you mate.
Onwards and upwards now to the next fight!
