Dossen downs Nevin in night of shocks at the National Stadium

Galway middleweight Gabriel Dossen insists he’s still not the finished product despite eliminating a defending champion at the National Elite Championships at the National Stadium on Saturday night.

The Olympic Boxing Club stylist edged Michael Nevin on a 3-2 split decision. The fight, touted as a 75kg “El Clasico” before a punch was thrown, certainly lived up to its billing in what was a thrilling encounter.
