Felix Cash


Felix Cash is an English professional boxer who has held the Commonwealth middleweight title since 2019.

Professional career

Cash made his professional debut on the undercard of Anthony Joshua vs. Dominic Breazeale on 25 June 2016 at The O2 Arena in London, scoring a four-round points decision victory over Yailton Neves.
After winning his first 9 fights, 6 by stoppage, he faced Stephen Danyo for the vacant WBC International Silver middleweight title on 28 October 2018 at the Copper Box Arena, London. Cash won by a shutout unanimous decision victory over 10 rounds with all three judges scoring the bout 100–90.
In his next fight he fought Rasheed Abolaji for the vacant Commonwealth middleweight title on 2 February 2019 at The O2 Arena, London. Cash claimed the vacant Commonwealth title with a first-round technical knockout. From the opening bell, Cash went to work with the jab, switching from head to body while landing the occasional hooks to the mid-section of Abolaji. Halfway through the round, Cash dropped Abolaji with a stiff jab. He made it to his feet by the referee's count of 6 and upon doing so, was met with heavy shots to the head and body. Abolaji fired back with a right hand counter which landed cleanly on Cash's jaw. With 27 seconds remaining of the round, Cash landed a powerful right hand to the chin of his opponent. With Abolaji on his way down, Cash landed a right uppercut to seal the deal, causing Abolaji to fall face-first to the canvas. The fallen fighter rose to his feet before the count of 10 but immediately stumbled backwards, prompting referee Marcus McDonnell to wave off the fight at 2:45 of the first-round.
The first defence of his Commonwealth title came on 2 November 2019 against Jack Cullen at the Manchester Arena on the undercard of Katie Taylor's world title challenged against Christina Linardatou. Cash successfully retained his title via eighth-round TKO. The first-round started out fast with both men having success. 40 seconds into the round, Cash landed a solid right hand to the head which stunned Cullen. After taking another powerful right hand, Cullen began backing up, only to be on the receiving end of a three punch combination which sent him to the canvas. Cullen spent the remainder of the round on the back foot, taking numerous blows to the head but still firing back with his own punches. The second was an evenly contested round with both men having success. Rounds three through six saw much of the same with both men landing clean shots at close range. In the final 30 seconds of round seven, after taking several powerful punches ending with a left hook, Cullen took a knee to receive an eight count from the referee. In round eight, after Cullen was on the receiving end of several unanswered blows, referee Howard Foster called a halt to the bout with 1 minute and 46 seconds remaining in the round.
