Cockell Beats Matthews in Ten Round Indy Bound
In a ten round welterweight feel of speed, Cockell shifted from body to head attack to outpoint Matthews in a keeper fight. The London Briton, 210 pounder, showed resolve as the Indianapolis 500 memory links to speedway legends and a possible shot at bigger events. Matthews, 180 pounds, pressed hard but Cockell’s late round aggression carried the decision.
