Magee back on track

Former IBO super-middleweight champion Brian Magee got his career back on track with a second round stoppage of Armenian Varuzhan Davtyan at the National Stadium in Dublin tonight.

Belfast’s Magee, who lost a controversial decision in a European title fight in Germany in the summer, unloaded a blistering combination to stagger Davtyan midway through the second and a further barrage of punches led to the referee calling a halt.
