Not the most reliable source but....

Apparently he's considering an offer from Goldenboy which could see him make his debut in Vegas in November on the Hatton-Mallignaggi undercard.

 

that would be awesome, cant wait for him to go pro.

just what weightclass will he be looking at??? jr. welter or full welter??

by the way, how tall is he??

 

Me neither.... olympic botch aside he's every bit as good as Khan i've heard.

 

5'9

 

I think he will be a full welter eventually, but a LW when he turns pro. He walks around at 71 kg apparently. Good boxer , i think he will go a long way

 

good height for a welter. thanx.

 

for a lightwieght thats a very good hieght. but you got to remember the kid is still growing...i just called a guy whos a year younger than me a kidatsch
i think he should stick to lightwieght for 2 fights or so (like trinidad did) then when he cant make wieght easily just go up in wieght until he doesnt feel the pinch of draining.

 

Only that he's much less suited to the pros imo and won't achieve that much as a professional.

 

he'll never get a world title fighting for golden boy

 

Best of lucky frankie!!!!!!!!!

 

Khan would still eat him for breakfast. GBP must be desperate for a UK boxer to sign up with them 100%.

 

Craig McEwan ?

 

Wonder when he was offered this, mmm?

 

you bet meto it.next fightingon the mosley undercard btw

 

They are desperate to crack the European market, as there is a lot of untapped talent being held hostage by idiotic promoters such as Warren, Palle and Hennessy.

Young prospects need to be matched against each other, not kept at a distance.

Not seen enough of Gavin to see whether he can crack the pro game, suppose the proof will be in the pudding.
