Campbell Wins!

Mitch Campbell crashing one of many right hands down
on his apponent Chris Newman.

Mitch Campbell did it all the right way on Saturday night. Right from the outset, he took control with his good solid straight jab, and continued the asault with a fantastic array of punches that took him to a convincing points victory. 

For his first fight, Mitch showed an amazing amount of control to not allow himself to be dragged into any brawling match with Newman. He kept it tidy and backed Newman up many times with his powerful straight punches down the middle. 

A lot of  credit goes to Chris Newman though, for being a tough adversary. This due to the fact that Mitch quite obviously backed him up with big shots on more than one occaision during the fight but he never gave up apart from the end of the last round where he quite obviously was holding so not to be hit any more by Mitch's power shots.

The bell saved Newman in the last round as he was quite obviously exhausted as he held Mitch against the ropes to stop any last minute action.

The boy's whom Mitch has been doing a lot of work with over the past few weeks Middle Weight, Dave and Heavy Weight, Fletcher holmes also fought on the night with Dave missing out on a close points decision and Fletcher winning again, going to 2 - 0, with now 2 knockouts. 

L to R - Dave, Mitch and Fletcher after the fight. 

Now our thoughts are on March 31st at Inala where we will have not only Mitch but we will have Smitty and Seth going around.

On another good note, last week saw Smitty right back in the swing of things since his sprained shoulder. He has been punching for just over a week and last wednesday he did rounds with Mitch. It's all looking good for more success on the 31st .
