Manchester’s Denton Vassell retained his Commonwealth welterweight crown with a unanimous decision over Namibia’s Bethuel Ushona in Wigan.
Vassell, 26, spent much of the fight on the front foot but found the challenger a difficult target to hit.
The awkward Ushona, 29, landed with some clean counter-punches but Vassell’s pressure and strength began to tell in the bout’s final quarter.
The judges scored the fight 118-111, 117-113, 117-112 in Vassell’s favour.
