Exciting Manchester super-featherweight prospect Zelfa Barrett was made to work hard for his 3rd professional victory over another local man in Stockport's Jamie Quinn. but was in truth always in control and took the referees decision.
Barrett and Quinn had history, they had met in the amateurs and although Barrett is now being built as a future champion, Quinn didnt read the script and went looking for The Brown Flash' from the first bell throwing big shots and constantly seeking his man. Quinn wasnt effected in anyway by Barrett's loud backing in the arena from the crowd and put on a good show. But Barrett slipped, parried and blocked most of Quinns shots and never looked troubled taking a close points win over 4 good rounds.
Winner: Zelfa Barrett WINS Points 39-38 - 4 x 3
The fight was part of the 'New Year Explosion' by Black Flash Promotions and BritishBoxers.co.uk and shown Live and Exclusive on #BBTVLIVE
