ATMOSPHERE
IT WASN’T the fight Lyndon Arthur wanted nor prepared for, but he ultimately got the job done to remain firmly in the mix in a thriving light-heavyweight division. A late change of opponent following a failed pre-fight medical for Argentina’s Braian Nahuel Suarez denied Arthur a chance to claim the vacant IBO bauble at the University of Bolton Stadium.
But the 31-year-old overcame that setback to see off a tricky replacement in the shape of former sparring partner Boris Crighton, winning by unanimous decision atop the Wasserman Boxing card.
