After a fairly even first round, Read upped the tempo and took the fight to his opponent. The third round saw him shift into turbo mode and scoring at will with heavy kicks and punches, he floored Tamoave with a great right hand.
Read would like to invite anyone who wants to learn a stand up fight sport to his class at The Fighting Tigers Gym on Mondays from 7.40-9.10pm.
