MARTIAL ARTS: Gannicott joy
12:00pm Saturday 14th July 2012 in Sport
Thai boxer Max Gannicott enhanced his reputation with a dominant victory over Liam McGrandles in Birmingham.
The 15-year-old, of Devils Mauy Thai Wantage, outfought the Midlander over five rounds with no body or head guards.
Gannicott, who has been sparring with 17-year-old world champion Dan McGowan, defended well against McGrandles.
And by the third round his strength and superior technique proved too much for his opponent as Gannicott took the victory on points.
