http://news.boxrec.com/news/2011/ainscough-replaces-dodson-scouse-prizefighter Nice to see this lad getting a break he has had a rough time of it past few years
whats the back story ? have never heard anything apart from him returning to the ams after a couple pro fights
The Kirkdale Kid suffered horrific injuries after being stabbed in an incident in Liverpool in April 2009 and was told by doctors that he would never box again. Ainscough excelled as an amateur, winning the ABAs in 1999, and had six wins from his first nine fights as a professional but his future was thrown into doubt when he intervened in a scuffle outside a pub in Walton. As he broke up a fight, Ainscough was stabbed in his lower body from behind twice and suffered a punctured bowel and bladder. Two years later, he returned to the ring in Manchester on Saturday night (March 12) with a first round stoppage of Iliya Shakura and steps up from being a reserve in Prizefighter to take the place of Adrian Dodson in the 17th edition of Matchroom Sports eight-man, one night tournament live on Sky Sports.
cheers hope he does well than anyone that comes back from that to competing like this deserves great credt
