Spelman has continued his career despite being in the corner when his opponent, Scott Westgarth, lost his life two days after beating him due to injuries sustained in their fight. Last Saturday, Spelman got a points win against Perry Howe. Spelman was in the ring after just over a year out, his last three opponents being Anthony Yarde, Lyndon Arthur and Shakan Pitters: so, no shirker then!<!--more--><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>International \u2013 most intriguing<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>The evening before on Friday the 4th of March, in Fresno, super lightweight Jose Pedraza faced Jose Ramirez and was schooled by him. Ramirez may not be able to rematch Josh Taylor at super lightweight but a big fight with Jack Catterall is mouth-watering\u2026<\/p>\n<p>International headline in the UK<\/p>\n<p>Then in the US on Saturday the 5th of March, Julio Cesar Martinez was also schooled by veteran Roman \u201cEl Chocolatito\u201d Gonzalez, in San Diego. I had wondered , what El Chocolatito had left and the answer was \u2026 tons! It was a wide points victory, deservedly so with Eddie Hearn having hoped to progress Martinez\u2019s career, this looks like a throwback is needed to progress the victor\u2019s return to the top!<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Fast Forward \u2013 the week to come as viewed from one side of the Atlantic<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>UK \u2013 biggest and most notable<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>This coming Saturday the 12th of March, we have one of the most intriguing world title fights in recent years at the champion\u2019s hometown of Nottingham.<\/p>\n<p>Leigh Wood will defend his title for the first time, having won it from Can Xu, against the phenomenon who is Michael Conlan. There is a bit of beef here and Wood got his title in a fight he was not expected to win so we expect some incredible fireworks. Wood was exceptional in his victory against Xu but is seen as some kind of easier fight than the other champions. Conlan, since his Olympic exploits where he was robbed by allegedly corrupt judges, has shone in his rise in the professional ranks and is supremely confident. Wood, having got his title, is unlikely to let go of it without one hell of a fight \u2013 and that is precisely what we are hoping for\u2026<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Under the radar<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>On the same night, Saturday the 12th of March, in Cardiff, there is a Celtic title fight at lightweight between Craig Woodruff and the character that is Ronnie \u201cThe Shark\u201d Clark. I think Ronnie has retired about four times in the last few years and has had some troubles over money which has not helped his focus. I was surprised to see he was back in the ring, but he brings such rich entertainment that I was equally delighted. I have to therefore temper my expectations as I would be delighted to see him win, but this may simply be an opportunity to put food on the table rather than resurrect a career that has had many highs\u2026 But you know how hope hits you!<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>International \u2013 most intriguing<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>Come Sunday the 13th of March, in Ontario, Canada welterweight Samuel Vargas takes on Przemyslaw Runowksi for the vacant IBO international title. Vargas is yet another veteran fighter who is working hard for another run. His last run out was over a year ago when he was beaten in the UK by Connor Benn. Runowski\u2019s last fight was also in the UK, 7 months ago when he lost the WBO Global fight at Matchroom HQ against Michael McKinson. This does intrigue as it appears like Runowski is likely to want to move on and up whilst Vargas is a stern test for any fighter at the weight.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Mentioned in dispatches<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>The DAZN undercard in Nottingham has middleweight Caoimhin Agyarko and lightweight Terri Harper on the bill.
