Fight Night: UWE call off Varsity bout at last minute
UWE boxers labelled as “scared” of facing Bristol counterparts
Last Friday’s much hyped Fight Night was put under serious jeopardy after it emerged that UWE gave Bristol the call on THURSDAY NIGHT to announce they wouldn’t be able to make it.

Officially, UWE cited a lack of adequate preparation of their fighters for the match, even though it was booked months in advance. A source close to The Tab revealed the true nature of the abandonment, labeling UWE as “too scared to fight”.
UoB’s Amateur Boxing Club was left with the enormous task of still putting on a show, refusing to disappoint the hundreds of people who had already bought tickets.
Replacements from Swansea and Portsmouth Universities, as well as boxers from two local amateur clubs were quickly drafted in as replacements for the UWE contingent.

The official Varsity Series website currently lists 29th April as a rescheduled date for the UWE-Bristol matchup. Both universities will be hoping to improve on last year’s bout, where the points were split between the two universities.
