Femi Fehintola kept his hand in with a comfortable victory in Sheffield.

The Bradford fighter is warming up for his homecoming show on February 6 when he will headline at the Hilton Hotel for the African international super-featherweight belt.

Fehintola claimed his 21st professional win with a 60-55 decision in a six-rounder against veteran journeyman Daniel Thorpe.

The pair had met before in 2005, when Fehintola edged victory by a single point. But this time it was far more convincing at the Octagon Centre against an opponent with well over 100 bouts to his name.
