Morby retains belt on Earl’s night of Capital Punishment

Paul Morby successfully defended his Southern Area super middleweight title at Luton promoter Graham Earl’s Capital Punishment bill held at York Hall on Saturday, writes Mike Simmonds.

The 31-year-old faced Daniel Cadman over 10 close rounds, so much so that the result was declared a draw by the referee.

Earl said: “It was a tough fight, but in the last two rounds, he needed to put in two big rounds and he did that.

“I think he kept hold of his belt because of those two rounds.

“I think there has to be a rematch now though.”
