Amateur Boxing Club www.CUABC.org.uk CUABC exists to introduce students of the University into the sport of amateur boxing. Founded in 1896, the club has a very rich and diverse history; previous members including doctors, politicians and even a former Olympic Heavyweight Champion. Like all full blue sports, CUABC’s season culminates in the annual Varsity Match against Oxford – the oldest boxing competition in the world – where student boxers in the past have competed in front of crowds of over 1000 people, as well as rubbing shoulders with some of the biggest names in sport and media.We believe that the levels of commitment, focus and heart that CUABC boxers acquire in their short time at the club are invaluable for success in future life. Varsity 17th March 2011, The Troxy, London Oxford 6-3 Cambridge The 104th Varsity boxing match was hosted at London’s Troxy with CUABC aiming for a hat-trick of Varsity victories.The night started with the featherweight bout where Cambridge’s John Lacy rode out an explosive first round. Looking like he was down on the scorecards, a tremendous right hook from Lacy dropped his opponent to the canvas to finish the round.With renewed confidence, the Downing boxer dominated the second round as his Oxford counterpart grew tired. Lacy continued with the same ferocity into the third, where a further knockdown prompted the referee to end the contest for the safety of the Oxford man. A great opening performance to get Cambridge fans on their feet, which also earned John the ‘Boxer of the Night’ Award. Next to step through the ropes was Sidney Sussex’s Nim Sukumar in the Lightweight category.This incredibly hard fought and intense match saw neither boxer willing to back down.The final few shots landed by Sukumar swayed the judges to a majority decision, giving Cambridge their second win. Light-welterweight Elliot Chamber’s Varsity hopes were ended shortly after the opening bell, before the action had really begun.The Oxford fighter’s wild left hook pole-axed Chambers to hand OUABC their first win. James Phillips stepped up against the strong Dark Blue Captain at Welterweight, but despite relentless determination and courage was out-boxed on this occasion and the overall score was evened. With quiet confidence, Cambridge fans watched on as Rich Simpson took to the ring. Having over 60 bouts to his name, the Cambridge man was the sure favourite against the Oxford debutant. Although the Light Blue managed to knock his opponent down late in the first round, the gulf in experience was unapparent. As the final two rounds saw Simpson tire, he resorted to ‘dancing-on-ice’ style pirouettes to evade further punishment; meanwhile Oxford’s Light-Middleweight pushed forwards to clinch the bout by a majority decision and put the Dark Blues ahead for the first time. Having moved up a class to Middleweight, last year’s captain and this year’s Town v Gown “Boxer of the night” Chris Webb took to the ring, looking to even the score.This was undoubtedly a tough contest that pushed both fighters to the limits of their skill and endurance. Going in to the third round with little more than a point separating the two, the Queens’ vet student edged ahead to a majority decision by maintaining his accuracy, fitness and nimble footwork to the final bell – qualities that we have come to expect from this triple Blue. Next to fight out of the Light Blue corner was Captain Ssegawa-Ssekintu Kiwanuka, raring to go having had all of his warm-up bouts cancelled this term.The Queens’ PhD student came out like a man possessed, systematically cutting down the ring to immediately force his opponent on the back foot. Avoiding Kiwanuka’s barrage of heavy shots with slick footwork and a rangy jab, the former Oxford football 9
