Timeline
Jamie McDonnell (born 30 March 1986) is a British former professional boxer who competed from 2005 to 2019.
McDonnell had his first professional contest in September 2005 when he scored a points win over Neal Reid at the Doncaster Dome.
He won his next three fights before meeting Welshman Dai Davies again at the Doncaster Dome and scoring a draw over four rounds.
On 13 October 2006 McDonnell beat Wayne Bloy over four rounds and in December of the same year he defeated future British super-flyweight champion Andy Bell over six rounds.
McDonnell's first title came in his next fight, meeting former victim Bloy on 23 February 2007 and scoring a third-round stoppage to lift the English bantamweight title.
The newly crowned English champion now had a record of 8–0–1 and had never fought outside of Doncaster professionally.
McDonnell's first fight outside his home town saw him travel to the York Hall in London to defeat Nikita Lukin on 21 September 2007 in an eight-round fight.
His next fight was to be for the British super-flyweight title at the Robin Park Centre in Wigan on 8 December 2007.
The fight with Chris Edwards would be the first time the British super-flyweight had been contested making this the inaugural contest for the belt.
The experienced Edwards eventually won the title via split decision after twelve hotly contested rounds handing a first defeat for the Doncaster man.
On 28 March 2008 McDonnell suffered his second defeat in a row having travelled to Barnsley to meet Lee Haskins.
The fight with Haskins resulted in another close loss over eight rounds with Haskins himself coming off a British title loss to Ian Napa in the bantamweight division.
The fight in Barnsley doubled as an eliminator for the winner to challenge for the super-flyweight title which Haskins would go on to win.
Following two straight defeats to British level fighters, McDonnell regrouped by returning to m and beating journeyman Anthony Hanna via fifth-round stoppage.
Two fights on the island of Jersey then followed with McDonnell scoring stoppage wins over imports Krastan Krastanov and Alain Bonnel before travelling back to Doncaster to defeat James Ancliff again before the final bell had been heard.
He held multiple regional bantamweight championships, including the British title twice between 2010 and 2011; the Commonwealth title from 2010 to 2011; and the European title from 2010 to 2012.
On 22 January 2010 McDonnell got his chance to fight for the British title once again, this time for the bantamweight version held by the experienced Ian Napa.
The fight, at the Brentwood Centre in Essex, saw a tough battle result in an upset split decision win for McDonnell with the added bonus of the vacant Commonwealth bantamweight title also being on the line.
McDonnell's victory over Napa allowed him to step straight into a challenge for the European title against the Jerome Arnould.
The fight, in Cannes on 20 March 2010, resulted in a surprise victory for the man from Doncaster with a tenth-round stoppage over Arnould to lift his third title in a row.
McDonnell made his first defence at the Doncaster Dome on 2 July 2010 against the newly crowned Italian champion Rodrigo Bracco and managed to retain the belt with a third-round stoppage win.
He returned to the Dome for his second defence on 22 January 2011 beating Stephane Jamoye in a close contest with scores of 115–113 114–113 114–114 despite having a point deducted in the eleventh round.
McDonnell chose to defend the Commonwealth belt he won against Ian Napa in his next fight in Sheffield on 28 May 2011.
Had he lost the contest McDonnell would have been stripped of his European title but there were no such concerns as he scored a unanimous decision victory over Nick Otieno.
Following the fight, promoter Frank Maloney said that a potential unification match with British champion Stuart Hall could be on the cards and that it was a fight that both the fans and the boxers themselves wanted to happen.
Mcdonnell fought Hall on 3 September 2011 and won via unanimous decision to reclaim the British title.
He held the IBF bantamweight title in 2013 and the WBA (Regular) title from 2014 to 2018.
On 31 May 2014 McDonnell fought Tamadang Da Rachawat for the WBA (Regular) bantamweight title on the undercard of Carl Froch vs. George Groves II at Wembley Stadium.
McDonnell won by technical knockout when he caught Rachawat with a left hook in the tenth round; despite getting to his feet, the referee decided that Rachawat was in no state to continue as he visibly stumbled after getting up.
His first title defense was on 22 November 2014 at the Echo Arena in Liverpool.
McDonnell retained his title, defeating Javier Chacon via tenth-round knockout.
His next title defense was also his US debut, against Japanese boxer Tomoki Kameda, in which McDonnell was considered the underdog despite holding the title.
Things were going Kameda's way in the early rounds, and he even managed to drop McDonnell in the third round.
In the fifth round, things would start going McDonnell's way.
All three judges thought McDonnell's performance in the latter part of the fight was enough, with all three scoring the fight 114–113 in favor of the Brit.
In the rematch, Kameda again started off strong, being the more active fighter during the first two rounds.
McDonnell would then take control of most of the remainder of the fight, boxing intelligently and managing to drop Kameda in the closing round.
This time, the Brit was the clear winner, winning the fight 117–110, 116–111 and 115–112 on the scorecards.
