I nearly had him a couple of times but he was as tough as they come.“What he did do was throw wild shots that I had never really seen before - they were not really textbook.“So I had to be wary of that.

The ones you don’t see coming are the ones that hurt you the most.“But I was dealing with them and then it was pure domination from there.“It was a great experience.

I felt really fit. I felt I could have gone on all night after the sixth round.“I made the lightweight limit as well. So it puts me in good stead going forward knowing that I can perform at this weight class.”Bibby had a strong family and friends following in the crowd, who sang away as they witnessed what Bibby called his “best performance yet”.“I think every fight I have had I have been better and better,” he explained.“Every fight my coach Billy [Nelson] says: ‘It is the best you have ever boxed’.“So long may that continue.“I had really good support there from family and friends.
