    yeah he's an awesome little boxer from Darlington, had about 45 fights and won 42 of them, won the schollboys a couple of times and he's in the junior aba semis at present.

    watched him in an awesome fight with Jeff Saunders at the end of last year, definately worth keeping an eye on. Going down to interview him for the next issue of our mag next week so ill post more info as i find it out

    Quigley is skillful and has very good hand speed, but he just seems to be very lacking in power.

    Some great battles to be had domestically over the next year or so in the run up to the Olympics.

    Tom Stalker has moved up from light weight to light welterweight. This means he comes into competition with Bradley Saunders at the weight for the no1 spot. Former Olympian against in form current GB captain.

    Callums Smith has moved up from welterweight to middleweight and that means he will be challenging Anthong Ogogo for the no1 spot

    Smiths departure has left welterweight wide open with Anthony Fowler Scott Cardle (who has also moved up) and Fred Evans also around a the weight there is an intriguing three way tussle for the top spot.

    he seems to have very good snap in his punches and gos to the body well , he still only 19 or 20 so his power will develop.

    O'neill is a world class puncher though you can hear it nearly every time he hits smith . hope he gos pro after london

    Cheers Chatty how is the website coming along?

    Are we up to the finals already then? If we match the winner of North and South semi finals does that give us all the ABA finalists. It might be a silly question but im never 100% sure how the competition works.
