Jake Kneale must have wondered what was happening in the first 30 seconds of his Boxing debut against James Mullady (House Of Pain).

Mullady came with a rough style that made it difficult for Kneale to establish himself. But as the round progressed he began to get the cleaner shots off and catch Mullady off balance.

As the contest progressed the divide between them became bigger but Mullady never stopped coming forward.

During the second round both men fell to the floor and Kneale surprisingly followed through with a right hand. The referee was straight in and issued a stern warning to Kneale before allowing the action to continue. It did, however, transpire that Mullady had bitten Kneale on the shoulder and attempted to do it again on the blind side of the referee.

All of this contributed to a bad tempered but entertaining affair that stretched the novice mind and spirit of Kneale to it's limit.

In the end he came away with a conclusive unanimous verdict and a promising future!
