ADY Lewis comfortably retained his British Flyweight title retained with a points victory over Mark Reynolds.
Although the fight at the Marriott Hotel in London went the full 12 rounds, the Mighty Atom won seven of them with three even.
"It was a good fight," said Ady's coach, Stuart Andrews,"but in the end Ady won it comfortably. Reynolds was extremely durable and competed well but there was not a mark on Ady. He made a lot of friends in the crowd, the supporters loved him."
Lewis, who measures just 4ft 10" has now won all his 13 professional fights.
The scene is now set for Ady to defend in Bury with a possible opponent Peter Culshaw, the Commonwealth title holder. He was meant to fight Ady earlier this month, but pulled out because he bruised his ribs in training.
