Craig Richards defeated Dan Azeez with a dramatic knockout victory in the 12th round of their light-heavyweight contest in Ghana. In a historic moment for Matchroom Boxing, where they hosted a show in Africa for the very first time, an evenly-matched contest topped the bill at the University of Ghana Sports Stadium in Accra. The two south Londoners, who live five minutes apart in the capital, put on a classic 12-round bout that was ended at the death with a rasping left hook from Richards, which slept his compatriot.
