John Ryder (31-5, 17 KOs) scored the biggest win of his career to date with the split decision victory over two-time middleweight world champion Daniel Jacobs (37-4, 30 KOs) in a WBA super middleweight eliminator on Saturday night at Alexandra Palace in London.
Jacobs was effective early, gaining the upper hand over the first six rounds but Ryder turned the fight on its head in the seventh, winning the next two whilst apparently closing out the contest to win by margins 115-113, 115-113 Ryder, 115-113 Jacobs.
Heavyweight Johnny Fisher (5-0, 4 KOs) defeated Gabriel Enguema (10-12, 6 KOs) via decision. Fisher went the distance for the first time in his career, winning by scores of 59-55.
Felix Cash (15-0, 10 KOs) had to get off the canvas twice whilst also having a point deducted in the defeat of Magomed Madiev (15-1-2, 4 KOs). Cash was on the canvas in the second and tenth but held on to win by scores 95-92, 95-92, 94-93.
Super bantamweight Ellie Scotney (4-0, 0 KOs) remained unbeaten with a decision victory over Jorgelina Guanini (9-4-2, 1 KO). Scores were 96-94, 96-94, 95-94..
Middleweight Austin ‘Ammo’ Williams (10-0, 7 KOs) was impressive in his stoppage of Javier Francisco Maciel (33-16, 23 KOs) in the sixth. Williams dropped Maciel three times on route to victory.
