Barry’s Lee Selby certainly knows how to celebrate a world title triumph. The 28-year-old scored a well-deserved technical decision win over the tough, undefeated IBF featherweight titlist Russian Evgeny Gradovich at London's O2 Arena on 30 May. Instead of embarking on a hedonistic bender, Selby went back to his hotel room to tuck into a slice of cheesecake. The only drink that passed his lips was carbonated water. “I don’t drink alcohol anymore,” admitted Selby, 21-1 (8 KOs), when speaking to Boxing Monthly. “I went to the hotel, hung around for photos and some autographs then went back to my room and ordered some cheesecake that’s my celebration.”
