Charlie Kirk started boxing only recently “to learn how to handle myself and toughen up frankly” and is grateful to south Leeds promoter Tristan Haynes for the chance “to showcase the skills I've learnt in what is the best sport I’ve ever done”.

“Everyone should learn to box to feel more confident about selfdefence,” said Kirk, 16. “I feel better about myself each session I attend, and I’ve now proved my skills in two exhibition bouts. I'm hoping maybe I could eventually become a professional boxer.”
