In a major upset, unheralded Nigerian junior middleweight Larry Ekundayo (3-0, 1 KO), whose overall oppponents' record in the first two professional fights was no better than 3-30, scored a shocking split nod over heavy favorite Craig McEwan (21-3, 10 KOs). Both fighters fought on even terms through three rounds, and the decisive factor was a cut over the left eye, suffered by the Scottsman in the first round. Phil Edwards and Richie Davis had it 29-28 - for the Nigerian, while Victor Loughlin scored it 29-28 - for McEwan. BoxingScene was in agreement with the first two judges. Larry Ekundayo is through to the semifinals of this Prizefighter series.
