Lee Haskins vs Stuart Hall won the interim title by knocking out Ryosuka Iwasa last June, then got the full title when previous holder Randy Caballero missed weight by a hilarious margin before their planned bout. In Boxing Schedule He last fought in May, handily beating Ivan Morales.
Hall (20-4-2, 7 KO), whom Caballero originally defeated to earn his title, has beaten three awful opponents and the actually competent Rodrigo Guerrero since consecutive close losses to Paul Butler and the aforementioned Caballero. He turned thirty-six this past February.
Haskins is more interested in dealing with domestic duties than becoming a global star and is happy to be Britain’s lesser-known world champion a club that has 11 members.
The proud Bristol man would rather be known as the city’s greatest sports star than a world-wide name in boxing.Fighting for his family has always been Haskins’ main aim anyways and why he turned professional at 18 with little amateur experience.
He had his eldest of three children –Anton - when he was just 16 so he felt he had to start earning with his fists to feed his offspring.Anton is now 16 himself and sharing a ring with his old man with 13 amateur fights and a West Counties title already under his belt.
