When and why you started boxing:
I started boxing at 11, my football coach sent me down there for extra fitness in the summer break and I loved every second of it. I guess you can say boxing chose me.
Favourite all-time fighter:
I donโt have a favourite. I like a few different fighters but for argumentโs sake letโs go with Julio Cรฉsar Chรกvez and Roberto Durรกn, I love their cleverness and inside work.
Best fight youโve seen:
Ah, Iโve seen a lot of good fights on TV, but probably any of the fights with the Four Kings involved!
Personal career highlight:
Being honest, I havenโt achieved anything at the moment although Iโve had some nice stoppages. This year will be my year! As an amateur I stopped Harlem Eubank in Brighton in front of his people, then asked Chris Eubank Jnr for a picture, he wasnโt happy [laughs].
Toughest opponent:
Dean Jones, that man can take a shot! Heโs the toughest because heโs only been stopped by myself.
Best and worst attributes as a boxer:
Iโm big and strong for my weight division. Weakness is I love to fight too much but Iโm learning every day in the gym. Discipline throughout the fight is key and thatโs something I work on daily.
Training tip:
Iโd say is always stay at least half fit and be willing to learn!
Favourite meal/restaurant:
Easy, pizza is my favourite meal or a nice dirty burger. Restaurant? Come on, Iโm a scruff I donโt go to restaurants!
Best friends in boxing:
Best friend in boxing is my brudda and coach Dean Lewis, shout out to him!
Other sportsperson you would like to be:
I wouldnโt want to be anyone else but myself!
Last film/TV show you saw:
Youโre going to think Iโm boring but what I watched last was boxing.
Who would play you in a film of your life:
Whoโs a bad man? Nah, itโs got to be Jake Gyllenhaal, heโs a cool guy and heโd play me well.
Have you ever been starstruck:
A little bit. I wouldnโt say starstruck but training at the MTK Performance Centre and being around Josh Taylor, Leigh Wood and Billy Joe Saunders.
Last time you cried:
Cried?! Come on youโre doing me dirty here, no comment officer!
Best advice received:
Never give up on yourself or your dreams. Not that someone has told me that, but Iโve told myself and itโs always stuck with me.
Worst rumour about yourself:
That Iโve got a 10-inch Rodney, crazy rumour that is!
Something not many people know about you:
Iโm a drum and bass lover. People who know me know this. All my ring entrance tunes are huge. The next one will be massive!
