Tony Oakey is the Prizefighter Light-heavyweights Champion.

Oakey claimed the title with a unanimous points decision victory over Oldham's Darren Stubbs in the final.

"I got better as the night went on," said Oakey, who wins £25,000 for the achievement.

"Prizefighter is all about entertainment and I would like to thank Barry Hearn for putting my name forward to be in it.

"I've won British, Commonwealth and WBU titles but this is just the same and when I retire I will be proud of what I've achieved. This is another thing to go on my CV.

"Winning this will open doors for me and tonight is my night. We went back to the drawing board after the Nathan Cleverly loss (for the British title in October).

"We knew we shouldn't have taken that fight against Clevely but this helps me back there. This ain't too bad for an old man!"
