Spelman — who suffered his first career defeat Saturday — said he was “absolutely heartbroken and lost for words” about the death of his opponent, a fellow Brit.

Westgarth didn’t start boxing until he was 24. He previously worked as a ski instructor and as a chef at Sheffield’s Royal Victoria Holiday Inn.
