Adams marching on with convincing victory
Nicola Adams is convinced she has discovered the blueprint for world title domination after dispatching gutsy Mexican Maryan Salazar after 35 seconds of the third round on her triumphant homecoming in Leeds on Saturday night.
The double Olympic champion made the most of the opportunity of boxing threeminute rounds for the first time in her career to deliver an explosive performance, roared on by a near-capacity crowd at the First Direct Arena.
It was a significant improvement on Adams’ relatively low-key debut win over Virginie Carcamo in Manchester last month.
Adams’ promoter Frank Warren is working on lining up a shot at WBO title holder Monserrat Alarcon around the end of the year.
