I thought he conducted himself brilliantly throughout. I hope someone with a bit of wedge sees his potential and enables him to give up the day job and go full time pursuing his dream.
It was one of those ‘pick what you like’ fights. Taking the emotion out of it I think it’s a close fight and although I thought Levi edged it, it’s not a stinker of a decision. To coin a football cliche - a draw would have been a fair result!

I am gutted for him and feel he did enough to get the decision, he boxed brilliantly, especially early on. He got sucked into Gomez's fight plan in the latter part, but even then I felt he held his own on many occasions. Although I am very biased here, I cannot say it was a 'stinker' of a decision, it was a close fight in the end, but it's rare you got those go in your favour as the away, lesser known fighter...

The way he conducted himself through the entire weekend was fantastic, and a wonderful reflection on himself, his personality and his professionalism.

There were plenty of folks there from Grimsby cheering him on. Hopefully with the decent numbers of tickets Levi sold, and the way he represented himself, both in and out of the ring, will encourage some of the folks in positions of power to get him another chance pretty soon

Yes Levi conducted himself very well, a very important point (for me) is that Levi showed he is at national level, it was a close fight and Levi never looked like he didn’t belong in there.

He can take a lot of encouragement from that because there is no doubt in my mind he will be English or even British champion one day, he’s good is Levi and you can tell he puts the work in, I know Andy Blackett (his trainer) very well, I boxed with Andy and I know full well that Andy leaves no stone unturned, he will have Levi back even better than before.


Grimsby and proud!
