London - Last week, Tommy Fletcher (7-0 6 KO’s) told BoxingScene.com that he wouldn’t be taking any chances with Spain’s Alvaro Terrero (5-20-2, 3 KO’s) and would look to take him out as soon as the opportunity presented itself.

22 year old Fletcher has been scoring some tru ly devastating early  knockouts and the search for a man to provide him with some rounds forced the Matchmakers to look to the heavyweight division. The plan didn’t work. Fletcher didn’t score one of his trademark spectacular knockouts but him calmly beat up the Spaniard.

Terrero must have thought Christmas had come early when Fletcher calmly spent the first round surveying the job at hand but he tightened the screws in the second.  The 6ft 7in tall southpaw stalked Terrero around the ring, damaging his nose and hurting him to the body with well-placed left hooks. After just 23 seconds of the third the action was halted. The ringside doctor deciding that the nose was too badly broken for Terrero to continue.  

A third youngster racking up his second straight victory on the show as a professional was Dagenham’s Billy Adams (2-0). The 21-year-old southpaw had his way with Nicaragua’s Engel Gomez (8-24-2, 4 KO’s) in their four round super featherweight fight.

‘Boom Boom’ Adams is a well-schooled boxer and peppered Gomez with his jab. Time and time again over the first couple of rounds he made him fall short before punishing him for his mistake with a straight left hand. It was nice, clean work from the youngster.   

Gomez kept throwing an overhand right counter and landed a couple to remind Adams to bring that jab back to his chin quickly but although he got on the front foot in the third round his successes were few and far between. It was a drama free but comfortable win. The referee’s scorecard predictably read 40-36 for Adams. 

Unbeaten featherweight Umar Khan (9-0, 1 KO’s) put in an eye catching, skilful performance and capped it off by recording his first stoppage victory. The 21-year-old was way too quick and sharp for Maicol Velazco (10-15, 3 KO’s). 

Clearly realizing that Velazco’s couldn’t match his speed and variety, Khan stepped to the Colombian and landed fast, straight punches inside Velazco’s wide shots. The punches weren’t badly hurting Velazco but he just couldn’t see them coming and the 21-year-old from Essex just kept throwing. After a right uppercut bounced of Velazco’s chin, referee Lee Every decided that the gulf in class was too wide and stopped the fight after 1.24 of the third round.
