Archie Sharp admits Declan Geraghty

« Back

Archie Sharp scored a devastating KO but didn't have it all his own way against Declan Geraghty.
 
Archie 'Sharpshooter' Sharp retained the WBO European super-featherweight title with a fantastic fourth-round knockout over valiant Declan Geraghty at the Royal Albert Hall.

The crowd watching Frank Warren’s bill was enthralled by the contest between the two MTK Global stable-mates with Geraghty showing all his skills early on in the fight before a devastating finish.

The Dublin challenger boxed superbly early on but found himself on the receiving end of a chilling left hook from champion Sharp that suddenly ended a thoroughly entertaining contest.

Sharp said afterwards: “He caused me a lot of problems early on and fair play to him. I wish nothing but the best for him moving forward – no matter what he decides to do.”
