Nathan Gorman stops unbeaten Mohamed Soltby in 5.

Unbeaten heavyweight prospect Nathan Gorman 10-0 (8 Ko's) took an important step forward in his career tonight, beating the previously undefeated Mohamed Soltby 13-0 (8 Ko's) in five rounds at the Metro Radio Arena in Newcastl, picking up the vacant WBC international Silver title in the process.. Gorman, who was originally scheduled to meet fellow unbeaten Brit Nick Webb, looked patient but purposeful against the imposing Russian, slowly applying a steady pressure throughout the first three rounds.. A minute into the 5th, a right hand shook the import, causing him to turn away.. Gorman fired a cluster of shots which dropped Soltby.. Gorman seized the opportunity and moved in to complete the job as Soltby began to lose his composure, a single clean right hand forcing Marcus McDonnell to call a halt to the action with Soltby all at sea..
Gorman at 18 stone has deceptive fitness and extremely fast hands.. Word has it that Nathan more than holds his own in sparring with Daniel Dubois a fighter that Gorman and mentor Ricky Hatton continually eye as a future opponent..
