| The main event was local favourite James 'Chelsea Chainsaw' Pope against George 'The Bear' Crespo. Both men were fairly evenly matched in both disciplines and the chess started with a slow pace, while both fighters made decisive moves. In the boxing Crespo's smile taunted his opponent and Pope cornered him to land body blows. The next round, Pope started to advance and picked off more and more material of Crespo. In the boxing, Crespo used his slick movement to his advantage and dodged many of Pope's attacks. Then on the board, Pope seized Crespo's Queen. The latter knew he needed a knock out finish, but Pope continued his attacking stance and didn't let Crespo anywhere near him. Crespo got in a tricky chess situation and after making an mistake, Pope swiftly moved in for a finish. |
