FIGHT CARD

Peter Maniatis Fights at Malvern Town Hall

a great success

What eventuated into a great fight-night took place at the Hall last night 16th Nov 07 and satisfied all comers thirst for good performances by all fighters.

The fights were all well matched and Peter once again proves to be a good force for Victorian and Australian Boxing.

Jon Walker caught up with Anont Donpradith in the 9th round to win by TKO when Chris Anderson had to intervene with Donpradith very wobbly by Jon's savage attacks.

Donpradith made a very good account of himself right up to the end of this fight and did prove a very worthy opponent.

Shannon McMahon drew with Jakkirt Suwunnalirt in what seemed a close win to Shannon, he in fact said he coasted the last round as he thought he had it in the bag, however the judges saw it differently and awarded a draw. Most people thought that Shannon got home.

Suwunnalirt has shown that his experiences have certainly had a positive toll on his skills as he is certainly an improved fighter/boxer.

We must add that some experienced officials but not participating saw Suwunnalirt a clear winner.

Paz fights with broken toe

Paz Viejo made a terrific effort in upsetting the polished boxer Luke Moloney but Luke's more accurate punching got him there on the judges scorecards. This was also a very entertaining fight and Paz is certainly having a good go in trying to improve his performances.

Visiting the change rooms after this fight it was seen that Paz had fought with a broken and with a huge tissue ripped off his right toe and was bleeding profusely, he said he had it attended to before the fight at some hospital and was an inpatient for some 3-4 days. Full credit must go to this man for gallantly taking the fight on at all.

Lincoln Stewart makes a successful return to boxing
With 100% body condition Lincoln was having his first fight coming back from his last fight in July 2002 and destroyed his opponent in the first round. The referee Chris Anderson had no option but to stop the fight as Linc was performing like a thrashing machine seemingly unstoppable. Lincoln is now 28 years of age.

This fighter has shown that his skills are still intact and hopefully he can prove to sustain longer fights when the time comes.
