Nevin’s wins Irish debut by stoppage in round one
JOHN Joe Nevin registered a routine stoppage victory on his Dublin debut.
The Olympic silver medal winner, who impressed in the Stadium as an amateur over the years, impressed at the 3Arena on the pro stage.
Nevin made it 3-0 with a stoppage victory over Jack Heath. It was clear to see from the off that the former amateur had too much for his English foe.
A body shot had Heath down early on, before a left hook reacquainted him with the canvas and another hook to the mid section forced the referee to call a halt to the fight.
