Two wins in two days for warrior Amat ahead of Top Yard's home show on Saturday
The powerhouse 69kg puncher beat Jibrail Talukdar, a quality boxer from Clifton ABC, on the March ABC home show before seeing off home fighter Marley Rutherford at the St Ives show.
Jobe beat Talukdar in a terrific scrap earlier in the year and the beaten man was keen for revenge and started well in a very close first round.

It was not all one way though with Talukdar boxing out of his skin, but once again he fell short with Jobe winning on a nail biting 3-2 split decision.
Jobe was more dominant against another old rival in Rutherford, another boxer seeking revenge, the following day.
But Jobe’s well-oiled engine was in overdrive. He took his time to warm up in the first, but then stepped up the gears in the second and third.

Patrick Connors (15) also fought for Top Yard in St Ives and beat another home fighter in Terry Mills at 57kg.
Connors finished the fight strongly to win the last two rounds with the cleaner shots and claim a unanimous points victory.
Top Yard host their home show at Gladstone Park Community Centre on Saturday. Tickets available on the door and boxing start at 4pm.
