One more bout to go before the main event!

Daniel Lapin def. Lewis Edmondson via majority decision (95-95, 96-94, 96-94)

Lapin edges it, as close as it gets!

The crowd is really filling out now, and it’s into this contest!

Back-and-forth boxing has the fans roaring on Edmondson, but it’s Lapin who does the better, cleaner work as the round progresses…

Finally the southpaw is starting to use his length to keep Edmondson at range, after struggling to do so for much of the fight.

One final scrappy but fun round, and we’ll go to the judges’ scorecards!

Boos as Jake Paul is shown on the big screen arriving…

Edmondson leans on Lapin, who in turn leans on the ropes. He has to be careful he doesn’t tip over them, so long is his frame!

A few moments later, the same happens, and this time Lapin turns his front onto the ropes… and nearly does go over!! He’s almost balancing on them with his torso!

The action resumes, and Edmondson is fired up as he gets after the Ukrainian! But AGAIN the action leads to the Briton almost tipping his foe over the ropes.

The ref then calls a timeout, believing Edmondson to have struck Lapin on the back of the head. Just a warning this time.

Wow, that round made the others look like crisp, clean action!!

Lapin’s neat, dyed orange mop has gotten messy.

He has moments of success in this round, but the nature of the action appears to be frustrating him; Edmondson is still making it scrappy, and seemingly to Lapin’s detriment for the most part.

Some of Edmondson’s entries are borderline funny, although they are working for him at times!

On one occasion, he steps in with a winging right hand, and his right foot is off the mat at the same time – with his toes pointed upwards!

It doesn’t look pretty, but it’s effective here and there.

Lapin looks to tidy things up, throwing light, teasing jabs at Edmondson’s guard as the Briton backs him up and pauses in front of him.

More holding from Lapin, more close-range body work from Edmondson.

He catches the Ukrainian with two winging hooks now, and Lapin looks a bit uneasy as he tries to circle away along the ropes!

Edmondson is having fun, taunting Lapin by throwing his hands all over the place.

Cheers around Wembley, as Dubois is shown on the big screen arriving!

Again, Edmondson gets into a messy confrontation; Lapin holds the back of his head, as the Briton ducks down and unfurls a slew of hooks to the body.

The referee eventually warns Lapin and separates the boxers.

Edmondson is still content to fight with his hands down for stretches of the action, trying to tease some aggression out of Lapin.

Later in the round, Lapin again looks to neutralise a scrappy Edmondson by holding his head.

In the final exchanges, Edmondson catches Lapin with a left hook as the Ukrainian exits to his own right.

Edmondson almost stumbles over forwards, after again appearing a bit erratic when under fire from Lapin.

The Briton looks to regain some composure, staying light on his feet and bouncing up and down. Lapin also bounces.

Lapin does well to sidestep a one-two from Edmondson. The Ukrainian then misses with a quick southpaw cross, before Edmondson crashes into him in the clinch.

Lapin, so tall, stands southpaw. Edmondson, a tall man himself, is orthodox.

Both fighters box with their hands fairly low at times in this first round, Edmondson more so.

In one chaotic moment, he gets right after Lapin and catches the Ukrainian a couple of times in a frantic exchange in the corner.

Later on, Lapin goes on the offensive, and Edmondson’s head movement is a bit jerky, a bit tense perhaps…

Another British vs Ukrainian bout next.
