Boness holds on for debut draw
Early form saves Jamie from defeat
Going to sleep in the fourth round almost condemned Jamie Boness to defeat on his professional bow.
The 25-year-old had looked good in the first three rounds, but was caught napping in the fourth which almost cost him the fight.
However, he managed to hold out for a 57-57 draw.
He said: "The first three rounds I thought were easy, but after, in the fourth, fifth and sixth, I lost my energy.
"I need more work in the gym. I was scheduled to do four three-minute rounds, but that was changed to six two-minute ones."
