Haley looked tired in the last round and Harmon enjoyed his efforts until the bell.

But his efforts were in vain as the judges awarded Haley the unanimous decision.

Britton faced Dillon Linley from Syd Ringside Boxing Club.

Linley came out of his corner with his hands raised, leaving his body exposed to Britton’s menacing right hooks.

He was not to willing to exchange shots with Britton at close quarters, so he opted to rush in, with his punches offering no effect to the Lincolnshire lad.

The final round saw Britton taking control as Linley started to show signs of tiredness, but the lad from Knottingley, was awarded a unanimous decision.
