A thrilling night of British boxing provided everything it was billed up to be plus a few surprises along the way.
British Olympians James DeGale, Frankie Gavin and Billy Joe Saunders all got off to victories on the their professional debuts, whilst Matt Skelton and John Thaxton both lost their titles.
Gavin and Saunders blew away their opponents within the distance, however the real talking point of the night was the boos James DeGale was greeted with after failing to knockout the little-known Vepkhia Tchilaia.
Despite this tough welcome to the professional ranks, DeGale looked impressive against an opponent who was clearly there to pick up a handsome wage and not embarrass himself.
As expected Gavin and Saunders both pleased the crowd with explosive displays, but it was a different story for John Thaxton and Matt Skelton.
An epic twelve rounder at the Norfolk Showground saw John Thaxton lose his European title by a unanimous decision, despite putting Frenchman Anthony Mezzaache on the canvas in the first.
Skelton lost his Commonwealth Heavyweight title to Prizefighter winner Martin Rogan at the age of 38 and after just twelve professional fights looks to be on the way to a world title shot.
Elsewhere on the night Don Broadhurst and Tyson Fury both carried on their excellent records with knockout wins.
