ZARA SAVES THE DAY

Lion’s Pennett-harris closes impressively to notch victory

LION held a Sunday afternoon show at their Hoxton gym and amid some disappointing results had a good winner in Zara Pennettharris, who finished strongly for a unanimous victory over Zoe Dosun from Hemel Hempstead club Fight2fitness. Both women threw plenty of punches in an entertaining affair.

One of several all-debutant bouts on the November show was the last, in which Lion’s Riael Campbell produced some stylish moves but ultimately

suffered against the height and reach advantages of Terrell Bernard (Dwaynamics), who took a deserved unanimous decision.
