Patel may well have squeaked through the four-rounder with a victory had he not been floored in the final round by ‘El Bravo’ at The Halls and eventually had to settle for a 38-38 stalemate on referee Kevin Parker’s card.

Also on the bill in Norfolk, middleweight Billy Bird out-pointed Antonio Petrov over four sessions, whilst Zephan Morris remains unbeaten at super-featherweight following a six round points win over Ben Mulligan.
Debutants Ryan Frost and Alan Ratibb scored welterweight triumphs over journeymen Ali Wyatt and Danny Donchev respectively, whilst 154 pound campaigner Joe Hurn is now 6-0 after a first round stoppage of Latvian Arturs Iljins.
