Re: Street of origin fight night

Quote: mr. chairman "You have to do it , I will give you a lift or give yo advise if you want , just under 500 people packed lowton civic hall , it was a sell out after 4 days . You have to have all the health and safety in place like doctors and paramedics , it's tough organising it but the buzz is amazing

Fight one johnny Carroll beat gaz pembrrton ko
Fight two Ben Horan beat lewis sproston points
Fight three ran grundy beat Danny as pro tko
Fight four lee pugsly v scott pugsly draw
Fight five andy eatock beat liam rowson ko
Main event Dave bradbury beat paul anderson tko

Bradders and paul laid into each other from the word go , very aggressive , bradders looked very good and paul tired after throwing everything at bradders , two big men , it's was frightening at times

The fight of the night for me was the pugsly brothers , they had the audience on there feet from the word go

It was a very moving night , the noise was incredible from the rugby fraternity of Leigh , lots of interviews from tommy Martyn's , Derek beumont , ian mort , Martyn's rydyard, ronnie Bibey , ken Barnes , Sid Baldwin, alan Rowley and sean Richardson

Derek said to the audience that a new signing will be revealed in the coming weeks for the centurions

Phil Johnson the ring master was amazing considering his daughter is very poorly in Christies , but he entertained a huge crowd all night

Micky Reynolds signed himself out of hospital to attend the evening then signed himself back in after the night ended, he really is an inspiration and deserved a standing ovation at the end

Leythers never fail to amaze me especially the rugby fraternity , they always pull together for each other

Leigh centurions did the club proud and Derek got the message across that we are in this together . I can't thank them enough . The club is on the way to the top , I have doubt about it'"
