Brad Pauls says he will “get more belts” after losing his British middleweight title to Denzel Bentley.
The Cornish fighter, 31, lost a unanimous points decision to the Londoner at Wembley Arena on Saturday.
The win also saw Bentley claim the European and WBO International belts, making him the organisation’s number one contender for its world title.
Pauls started slowly, but recovered to win a couple of the middle rounds before Bentley assumed control knocking the Newquay fighter down in the 10th round.
“It was not the result I wanted, I’m absolutely gutted, but I did try my absolute best,” Pauls said in a video message on social media after the fight.
“Massive respect to Denzel Bentley who’s a great fighter, definitely above British level.
“I took a shot at something higher, it didn’t work out, but I’ll do what I always do and dust myself off and go again.”
