From BBC Sport
Welshman Enzo Maccarinelli retained his WBO cruiserweight title with a bruising but unanimous points victory over Wayne Braithwaite in Cardiff.
With 38 knockouts on the records of the two fighters, an early finish was anticipated between two big punchers.
But the Swansea man, making the third defence of his title, adopted a patient approach in a mature performance.
He floored the ex-WBC champion in the fifth round and finished well ahead on all three judges' scorecards.
The 119-108, 118-109 and 120-107 verdicts were testimony to Maccarinelli's dominance, a couple of final-round scares apart. |

| Glad you went, the man Enzo did well. I remeber Nigel Benn bitch slapping Nicky Piper. Seems a good bloke does Piper, well educated and very clever. |
