Boxing Night Descends into Chaos: Wild Draws and Mouthpiece Mishaps
11 Oct
Summary
- Main event ended in a controversial split draw despite one judge's lopsided score.
- Co-main event also resulted in a split draw, sparking debate over scoring.
- Michael 'Venom' Page signed with Misfits Boxing following his UFC departure.
Misfits Boxing's latest event, held at the Copper Box, was marked by significant controversy and unexpected outcomes. The main event between Joey Essex and Dapper Laughs concluded in a split draw, a decision widely questioned as one judge had Dapper Laughs winning every round. This follows a pattern of contentious judging at the event.
The co-main event also ended in a split draw, further fueling discussions about the night's scoring. Meanwhile, Mo Deen faced a TKO loss against Jordan McCann after refusing to wear his mouthpiece multiple times, an incident likely to impact his future with the promotion.
Beyond the fights, Misfits Boxing made a major announcement: the signing of Michael 'Venom' Page. This move comes shortly after Page's departure from the UFC, signaling new opportunities for the combat sports star within the Misfits framework.
The undercard saw notable performances, including Plinio Cruz's debut victory and Big Stacks defeating former Premier League player James Collins. Carla Jade successfully defended her women's lightweight title, and tag-team bouts also featured on the card.
