Lee Selby secures points win over Romulo Koasicha

Welsh featherweight Lee Selby defeats Mexican Romulo Koasicha on points at the Motorpoint Arena in Cardiff.

Lee Selby has moved closer to a shot at the WBC featherweight title after securing a points victory over Romulo Koasicha.

The Welshman has moved himself up the rankings with several governing bodies, and his comfortable triumph over the Mexican should land him a major fight during the summer.

The opening two rounds were even, but the Barry-born fighter found his rhythm to keep his opponent at arms length for much of the encounter.

Koasicha enjoyed the odd positive moment, but Selby was the clear victor, with the judges scoring the fight 119-109, 119-109 and 119-110 respectively.
