BCB Promotions has announced its next show: ‘The Takeover.’ Taking place at the Astoria in Wolverhampton on Friday, October 25th, the card features nine unbeaten fighters from the West Midlands.

Wolverhampton Boxing Club duo Jermaine Osbourne-Edwards (11-0) and Gully Powar (10-0) are both aiming for major title fights in the near future and will get in more much-needed rounds in their home city.

Brandon Bethell (4-0) finishes his first year in the pro ranks with his fifth fight, and the TMA gym talent’s army of fans will be back out in numbers to make plenty of noise.

Omarah Taylor (3-0) has oozed class in her three previous bouts, and the Joby Clayton-trained welterweight will be in the title mix soon.

Midlands Area featherweight champion Ryan Griffiths (6-0) isn’t wasting any time boxing for the second time in eight weeks as he looks to stay sharp ahead of his highly anticipated rematch with Lewis Morris.

Tipton’s Conor Baker (4-0) made his debut the same night as Bethell and is also hoping to make it a fantastic five wins from five.

Danny Skidmore (3-0), Blaine Williams (1-0), and debutant Jack Finlan complete the card.

This show will not be streamed live, so the only way to see the action is by buying a ticket.
