The Bluewater shopping centre in Kent hosted a series of boxing matches on Saturday 13th October, in the complex's new Glow Arena. The event was headlined and topped off by James DeGale's defence of his EBU Super Middleweight title and so I took up my ringside position for the evening, and tried to remember how to shoot the sport.
I've only shot amateur boxing until now, in gloomy school sports halls, so this televised event meant that there was actually some decent lighting...
Here's a picture from a fight earlier in the evening, with local boxer Adam Dinsdale, from Hoo, up against Ibrar Riyaz.
