 British Cruiserweight Title Challenger Billed: Lincoln Age: 30 Height: 6ft 2inches Weight: 14stone 4lbs* (estimate) Trainer: Richard Poxon Professional Record - W 22 (11 ko's) | L 17 | D 2 | Hard-hitting Lee remains the only man to beat WBO champion Enzo Maccarinelli, destroying the Welshman with one punch in front of a stunned Swansea crowd in May 2000. Maccarinelli has never given Lee a rematch. However, Swaby has had other success, having gone on to twice fight for the British Cruiserweight, albeit losing both fights via stoppage. Swaby is currently considering his options after getting stopped in seven pulsating rounds by Buster Keaton in October. Fighting for the vacant Cruiserweight belt Swaby started very well, keeping the Sheffield slugger at long range and shelling him with some solid southpaw shots, but seemed to fade in the middle rounds. Exhausted, Swaby was drilled to the canvas in a thrilling fight. Now 22-16-2 (12KOs) Swaby will be looking to bounce back. "In a way Lee is a bit of an underachiever," promoter Dennis Hobson said. "He's got an unconventional style and plenty of power. I just wish he'd been with us from the start of his career so we could have brought him on a bit more." |
