Steve BunceHOST
And with Barry Jones, Barry, we've been ringside to watch Pat Brown in his seventh fight.
Steve BunceHOST
Drop, John Hedges twice with perfectly placed little left uppercuts underneath the right elbow in whatever it was, the sixth round.
Steve BunceHOST
Fantastic, clean finish.
Steve BunceHOST
But I thought in the first couple of rounds, I think Pat realised how big the occasion was.

Steve BunceHOST
Pat Brown won the British title in his seventh fight, equaling a record set by TJ a million trillion years ago.

He's now the British Cruiserweight Champion.
Steve BunceHOST
Knocked out John Hedges with a beautiful left hook underneath the right elbow.
Steve BunceHOST
Dropped him twice.
Terry ChapendamaHOST
It's not like Ricky Hatton where there were connections before.
Terry ChapendamaHOST
you knew ricky's old man or you ricky's uncle you knew this guy you knew that guy and so you had an indirect connection with ricky if nothing else people like this pat brown guy's just just another guy yeah hearn's trying to convince you that this is the next destroyer and stuff and we're a long way off there but we'll come on to that because i only saw two fights on the card it wasn't really worth my time dicking around with the rest of them so i watched the john hedges versus Pat Brown fight in addition to the Masood, Shabazz Masood versus, what's his name, Sakari Manseer? Nothing will tell you Hearn is determined to spend none of his money than watching that card.
Terry ChapendamaHOST
Do you remember when he used to do next-gen cards in the early days of O'Hara Davis, Craig Richards, Conor Bennett, etc.? ? And they dig up guys like Cedric Payne.
Terry ChapendamaHOST
You'd just be like...
Terry ChapendamaHOST
There are guys where Matchroom will say, in my opinion, get him beat because we do not want to pay for this guy's fights anymore.
Terry ChapendamaHOST
If he loses, we ain't got to pay him no more.
Terry ChapendamaHOST
I believe John Hedges is one of those guys.
Terry ChapendamaHOST
There's no upside to John Hedges.
Ade OladipoHOST
Let's end on this one very, very quickly.
Ade OladipoHOST
Pat Brown, John Hedges, this weekend, British Cruiserweight title fight.
Kweku AfariHOST
You're up in Manchester for it, aren't you? I'm up in
Ade OladipoHOST
Manchester.
Kweku AfariHOST
You can get a better belt.
Ade OladipoHOST
Boxer versus puncher.
Ade OladipoHOST
Hedges is definitely the box with the two.
Ade OladipoHOST
Although Pat Brown is a very good boxer.

I think Pat's got good feet, good hands.
DesPANELIST
He can punch.
DesPANELIST
And as good at what John Hedges is, I think Pat ticks that box too.
DesPANELIST
I think this comes down to levels.
Andrew McCartHOST
The whole Matchroom team are big on Pat Brown.
Andrew McCartHOST
Now, if he does go in there and does a number on John Hedges, how do you match this guy going forward? How do you match him next? Because, like I say, the Benavidez, the Apatars, they're probably a wee bit too far ahead right now.
Andrew McCartHOST
So how do you match him going forward?
Frank SmithGUEST
It'll be a tough task.
Frank SmithGUEST
Obviously, we signed him 18 months ago.
Frank SmithGUEST
20 months ago, about that sort of period, and everyone wanted him, and he was a big signing.
Frank SmithGUEST
John Hedges has built from a young age all the way through, and he's gone down that traditional route, and this is his big opportunity, his standout moment, and we're in for a real fight.
Frank SmithGUEST
But from Pat's perspective, if he was to win, he's going to want to step up.
Andrew McCartHOST
I can't wait.
Andrew McCartHOST
The whole card's good fights up and down, but your mate Pat Brown's on a good fight against John Hedges.
Andrew McCartHOST
Talk to me about that one.
Dave AllenGUEST
I just think Pat's too strong for him, and it's too hard.
Jamie WardHOST
And welcome back to today's final press conference here in Manchester, as I said in the intro there at the wonderful Co-op Live, which Saturday night is the setting for a fantastic domestic tussle between two unbeaten cruiserweights.
Jamie WardHOST
John Hedges of Takeley and Essex unbeaten.
Jamie WardHOST
In 12, has already won both the Southern Area and English Cruiserweight titles, but now steps into the Lion's Den here in Manchester to face the man down here to my left, the unbeaten Olympian Pat Brown, who has so far looked fairly spot on.
Jamie WardHOST
Six fights in, six knockouts, and has a growing support here in this part of the world and a growing reputation as one of the real emerging stars of this Cruiserweight division.
Jamie WardHOST
The biggest moment of both of their careers so far, both full of confidence and both highly motivated for their own reasons.
Jamie WardHOST
Then he'll be taking home all of the silverware on Saturday night.
Jamie WardHOST
Live on DAZN, great expectations, John Hedges versus Pat Brown.
Jamie WardHOST
A few faces to hear from then on the top table here this afternoon before we get down to the media questions and then back up here to finish up on stage.
Eddie HearnGUEST
I think this is a very, very tough fight.
Eddie HearnGUEST
Look at John Hedges.
Eddie HearnGUEST
He looks like he's really become a man.
Eddie HearnGUEST
over the last year or so.
Scott HamiltonHOST
Massive night of boxing this Saturday at the Co-op.
Scott HamiltonHOST
John Hedges, Pat Brown, two of our unbeaten cruiserweights collide for the British and Commonwealth titles.
Scott HamiltonHOST
This is what we want to see, right? Two of our young guys getting in there and putting it all on the line.
Eddie HearnGUEST
Yeah, it's quite a unique position.
Eddie HearnGUEST
I think he's extremely long, obviously.
Eddie HearnGUEST
And I think he's going to be difficult for Pat Brown to break down.
Eddie HearnGUEST
I don't think this is just going to be one that Pat Brown walks into, walks down John Hedges and gets to him early.
Eddie HearnGUEST
I think it could take him some time.
LeoHOST
This is a card for the Brits.
LeoHOST
