Mike defeated on points
Venue – Reebok Stadium, Bolton, Sunday 20th December 2009
Southport Cruiserweight boxer, Mike Stafford, suffered his first defeat of his professional career on points against Billy Boyle (Sheffield) at the Reebok Stadium, Bolton over 4 x 3 minute rounds.
It was a close nit contest with Mike throwing plenty of clean punches against the tough opponent from Sheffield. The fight could of gone either way but the referee lifted Boyle’s hand after 4 grueling rounds.
His travelling fans thought Mike had just clinched the contest but the referee declared Boyle the winner.
Amongst the star studded audience was former world light-welterweight champion boxer Ricky Hatton.
