Gator Boxing Club’s Harvey Horn progressed to the national semi-finals of the Junior ABA championships with an impressive victory in the quarter-finals at Oxford last Sunday.
Boxing as the London Junior ABA champion, Horn outscored Robbie Mayer, the Southern Counties champion, 10-2.
Harvey landed some heavy punches in the first two rounds in which Mayer did not record a scoring blow.
Horn continued as the sharper puncher in the final round to confirm his superiority and chalk up a fine win.
In the national semi-finals, Horn’s opponent, Danny Hedges, holds an earlier win over the Hainault club’s boxer, a defeat which Horn is keen to reverse in two weeks.
