    Dave Allen asks for the ref to end the fight. The Doncaster De La Hoya retires on his stool.

    Price has the biggest grin on his face - and rightly so.

  5. Round 10published at 22:22 British Summer Time 20 July 2019

    Allen v Price

    The confidence this will give Price.

    It hasn't been a slugfest but it's been technically proficient and very mature.

    Price, however, would like to end this by KO. He reddens Allen's face again with a jab.

    Allen v Price

    "You've got your second wind now let's go for it."

    That's what Dave Allen is told in his corner. Only a knockout or an outrageous decision can save him now...

    Allen v Price

    Allen's eye looks like it's closing - luckily there's enough of Price to see with one eye.

    The bell goes.

  9. Round ninepublished at 22:18 British Summer Time 20 July 2019

    Allen v Price

    Allen is going for broke - a hopeful combo fails to dent the Price damage bar though.

    Allen's defence disappears as his opponent lands a handful of jabs.

  10. Corner talkpublished at 22:15 British Summer Time 20 July 2019

    Allen v Price

    "Jab, move."

    That's the instruction from David Price's corner.

    They know Dave Allen will need to throw the kitchen sink now and that's the only risk to their man.

  11. Round eightpublished at 22:15 British Summer Time 20 July 2019

    Allen v Price

    Allen has a bad cut above his right eye.

    The Conisbrough man manages to land a looping glove on Price - but it was one of those flailing ones out of desperation.

  12. Round eightpublished at 22:14 British Summer Time 20 July 2019

    Allen v Price

    Price's hands quicken.

    A combo sees him land one just above the belt.

    Price has increased in size from 6ft 8in to 7ft 8in!

    The Liverpool fighter's upper cut then finds its way through. This has been very disciplined from the big man.

    Price continues to force Allen's head to rock back with those whiplash jabs. He needs a seatbelt.

    Another good shot rattles the Doncaster De La Hoya.

  17. Round sixpublished at 22:07 British Summer Time 20 July 2019

    Allen v Price

    Allen is cramping Price for space by coming close and then holding - slowing down the contest.

    Both fighters need a breather for the distance, which it looks like it might go.

  18. Corner talk...published at 22:07 British Summer Time 20 July 2019

    "He's running out of ideas".

    That's what David Price's corner are saying right now.

    Price gets through again as Allen looks to unload - this is really impressive from the giant.

    Sticking to the gameplan.

    Allen then swings but punches air.
