he fights like a pro, is built like a brick shit house. Ive seen him box a few time here in Ireland, and as i said earlier, i was actually shocked Eddie Hearn didnt try and sign him after he didnt make our olympic squad.
i even tweeted Eddie Hearn about him the night he was "beaten" by the turk to deny him a place in the olympics.
i know his uncle, and if im not mistaken, he's actually a cousin, or second cousin, of Martin Ward that recently debuted on a recent Matchroom card.
