Since those two cancelled fights, Vuong has stayed busy, winning at Wembley Arena against Joe Underwood Hughes and more recently in a step up against Welshman Gavin Gwynne.<\/p>\n
Vuong came out of that contest with the win but, as his unanimous decision victory was read out, boos rang out around the arena with many in attendance in disagreement with how the judges scored it.<\/p>\n
His promoter Eddie Hearn even admitted, external<\/span><\/a> on the night he felt Gwynne “edged the fight” and that he would like to “run it back”.<\/p>\n “First and foremost it was a great fight,” Vuong said.<\/p>\n “I believe I won it six rounds to four, it was close but if you check the record there is a big green W and a unanimous decision win for me.<\/p>\n “If Gavin wants it again then he can get it, I have never shied away from a fight in my life.”<\/p>\n During his preparation for Friday’s bout, Vuong was filmed sparring with WBC lightweight world champion and pound-for-pound ace Shakur Stevenson.<\/p>\n Stevenson is regarded by many as one of the top boxers in the world and arguably the best in his weight class at 135lbs.<\/p>\n He is a three-weight world champion and most recently defended his title against Briton Josh Padley<\/a> in Saudi Arabia. <\/p>\n “It’s not every day you get to share the ring with one of your favourite fighters,” Vuong smiled.<\/p>\n “It was intense but a great experience, he shared some knowledge with us afterwards too, it was mad, crazy really.<\/p>\n “Doing that brings my game on a hell of a lot, it was great to pick his brains and see what he thinks. I aspire to be at that level and god-willing I will get there one day.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
