    I could see it from an experience side......any coach would.



    On another note........


    Given where we are, it aint like theres gyms next door like Glasgow/Edinburgh for sparring etc.

    No gym either, 1 hour a night, usually 6-7 pm in a community hall with 5 bags..........there used to be 10.

    Result.......10 Scottish champions, 1 Bronze medal at the Commonwealths, 1 world (services) champion.....theres probably others i forgot.

    One year there was 3 Scottish champions.....Andrew Young, Sandy Robb, Scott Mackay........plus Sandy Bartlett who lost in his final (am told he won)

    Theres also been Scottish Jr Champions, Senior finalists and Female champions.......though i forget there full names.

    All within 15 years....maybe less............pretty damn good.



    Scott Ross and Jasper Chisolm have also turned Pro, Ross won on points over 6x2's last week on his debut.



    Laurie Redfern = Ledge !!!

    I saw his final sparring session b4 the fight, he was in good shape. Considering his height looks in good shape, probably still to develop some more man strength as well

    See he's on the undercard for the Lee McAllister fight next month,

    would be wrong not to check him out with this show being only an hours drive away.
