Jazza Dickens wrote his name into the Merseyside boxing history books after claiming the IBO world featherweight title with a win over Lerato Dlamini.
Dickens has twice failed in his attempts to win world titles, but it was third time lucky for the popular 31-year-old, who was awarded the win on all three of the judges’ scorecards.
In front of a packed out Eventim Olympia, Dickens came through 12 tough rounds of boxing against South African Dlamini, who certainly proved to be no pushover.
