Heavyweight hero makes winning comeback in city
Leicester Mercury
|November 29, 2025
THE Maher Centre was packed to see Leicester Kickboxing Club's next generation - and the return of a heavyweight hero.
There were about 1,400 fight fans at the venue and they saw Fraser Weightman, right, make a winning return to action after a 12-month break.
Head coach Jag Johal admitted he had doubts about matching the former British, Commonwealth and European champion against Pavlos Kochliardis after such a lengthy absence.
Kochliardis is a veteran of 60-plus bouts and has been fighting regularly. But Weightman dominated him over six rounds, beating him clearly on points.
Weightman has fought at the top level as a professional after winning ISKA world amateur honours - and Bilal Husainkhel is looking to follow in his footsteps.
