Return Of The Mac, McAleese-Lowe Headlines April 30th Newmarket Show PhilBoxing.com Tue, 19 Apr 2011 Newmarket?s Light Middleweight prospect ?Phat? Pat McAleese gets a ?home? fight on Saturday 30th April when he headlines the Graham Earl-TKO Boxing Gym co-promoted ?Return Of The Mac? event at Tattersalls Sales Rooms in Newmarket, Suffolk. McAleese?s opponent on the 30th April is AA Lowe, from Newark, Nottinghamshire, who recently unsuccessfully challenged for the BBBofC Midlands Area Light Middleweight title. The Newmarket outing comes fast on the heels of a truly scintillating performance by McAleese, that see him take a shut out points victory over Spain?s Fran Gonzalez at the ?Essex Eruption? event in Dagenham, Essex in mid-March. There was no feeling out period, both protagonists went to work right from the opening bell. The action was nonstop and produced some of the best pure boxing of the show. For the full three minutes they matched each other punch for punch, it was that close throughout. Round two see McAleese step things up to try and wrestle control of the round from the gutsy Spaniard. However Gonzalez had no intention to allow him to do so and countered every attack. Round three see more of the same at first, but the tide was beginning to turn in McAleese?s favour around the two minute mark. McAleese added more venom to his attacks, in doing so forcing Gonzalez to go on the defensive. Round four see McAleese continue in the same vein, often backing Gonzalez onto the ropes before letting rip with heavy flurries of left and rights to body and head. During one of the later attacks McAleese caught the Spaniard with a heavy left to the ribs, Gonzalez was clearly hurting and covered up. This encouraged McAleese to turn the pressure up another notch. McAleese was relentless playing Gonzalez?s ribs like a xylophone with wickedly fast ten-twelve punch salvos. Round five was a cracking round for McAleese, who constantly backed up the tiring Gonzalez before letting rip with ten punch plus flurries. As the round progressed Gonzalez occasionally responded with the odd counter attack, but was often thwarted by the fast hands of the Newmarket man. A sure fire stoppage finish looked on the cards in the final round, as again McAleese caught Gonzalez with a massive left to the ribs. However the durable Gonzalez survived the follow up salvos and went defensive to see out the final couple of minutes. The referee scored the bout 60-54 in favour of a delighted McAleese. Following a training session, with co-trainer Brian O?Shaughnessy at the TKO Boxing Gym in London, McAleese spoke briefly on the upcoming showdown with Lowe. ?Yeah, I?m fighting AA Lowe, just found that out and I don?t know a lot about him yet and I?ll look him up on the internet. I?m doing everything I need to do in the gym to make sure I?m fit enough and that. Sparring and everything?s going well. There?s only a couple of weeks to go and I can?t wait to go in the ring in front of the Newmarket crowd. It?s been over a year since I fought there so well due the return. I sell a lot of tickets in Newmarket, It?s good to do a home fight, I have great fans they follow me wherever I fight so it?s nice that they don?t have to travel. It?s always a great night and it boosts my publicity in Newmarket. Before the end of the year I want a belt. I want to be a champion, that?s my goal. It?s down to Johnny (Eames) and the team to get it on, I?m sure they will. The fight on the thirtieth I?m just going to fight my fight, learn from it, to ready myself for a championship ten or twelve rounder in the near future. I would have liked to have had the trilogy fight with Lee Noble for the Masters title but he?s already said he?s not having any of that again. Think he knew I had beaten him well for eight rounds and that it was a lucky punch that put me down. Ryan Toms is fighting for the Southern Area, if he wins that I?m more than happy to fight Ryan Toms for the title. Take it off him no problem. I really appreciate all the support from my fans, they always come out and support the local lad. They come out and never let me down and I?m sure they wont this time.? ?Phat?
