Weston boxer Scott Davey travelled to Torquay to face undefeated Alex Loewy.

AFTER a successful home tournament, Weston Boxing Club were back on their travels.

Scott Davey, aged 12, of Worle School and son of coach Sheridan Davey, travelled to the Riviera Centre, Torquay to face undefeated son of Torbay coach Alex Loewy.

The home boy came out firing from the opening bell, keen to please his local following, but Davey boxed well on the back foot.

The second round was much the same, but Davey was having success with his right hand. It looked like Davey had won the first two rounds, but as Loewy was the aggressor, Davey senior told Scott to pick up his attack for the third round.

Davey came out strongly and shook his opponent several times with some big punches. However, he tired towards the end of the round to let Loewy back in it, but the judges found in favour of Davey.

The following night Weston ABC went to Yate Leisure Centre, Bristol, with Bradley Warwick and Tom Harris.

First up was Warwick, who faced Tommy Russell of Synwell in a schoolboy contest. Warwick started well in the first round and maintained the same momentum at the start of the second, before he received a standing eight count, but he had already done enough to win the round.

Warwick started the third round well, but once he was caught a couple of times and the referee stopped the contest.

Tom Harris, aged 17, son of coach Chris Harris, faced Joseph McKinley of Pilgrims ABC, Plymouth.

Both boxers were tall and had much the same style, causing both boxers to tangle. Harris’s corner tried to tell him to change, but he carried on doing the same. The officials found in favour of McKinley by a split decision.
