Dana’s knockout win

By Kirra Livingstone

Dana Coolwell has bounced back from an upset loss earlier this year to defeat Lorenz Ladrada on July 2 by TKO in just the fourth round.

The Beerwah featherweight, who fights out of Hinterland Boxing, said it felt great getting the win and paid tribute to his coach, Steve Pitt.

“I’m just always improving on the little things in camp and always credit goes to my coach,” he said.

“We work so well together and always bring out the best in each other.”

Dana said he was excited to finish the fight in the fourth of  an eight round bout, adding he was focused on following his fight plan and staying level-headed.

“It felt good getting him out there early,” he said.

“I stayed composed and smart to pick my shots to wear him down and eventually get the stoppage.”
