Tom Aspinall didn’t miss a beat.
in an entertaining featherweight tilt. All three judges saw the fight 29-28 in favor of “The Prospect,” who has been victorious in his last three promotional outings.
The bout’s first 10 minutes were filled with action. Fili sat his foe down with a straight left at the outset of the bout, but Wood recovered to rock the Team Alpha Male product with a powerful right hand. Wood then followed his man to the mat and teed off with punches and elbows — but a finish didn’t arrive.
Fili had his chance in the second stanza, when he buckled Wood during an exchange and followed up with a series of clinch knees that sent the Brit to the floor. Fili then moved to take the back, but he couldn’t find an opening for a submission. Round 3 was closely contested, with neither man willing to get reckless. Ultimately, Wood had the edge in volume and power, which gave him the nod on the scorecards.
