Richard Commey (18-0, 17KOs) claimed the vacant Commonwealth lightweight title with a unanimous points victory over Welshman Gary Buckland (28-5). Epping-based Ghanaian Commey, 27, was taken the distance for the first time in his career after winning all of his previous fights inside eight rounds, but was a big winner on the judges' cards - 117-111, 117-111 and 118-110 - at Bethnal Green's York Hall. It was Buckland's second successive defeat after his split-decision loss to fellow Welshman Gavin Rees in May.
