Welsh Champion Boxer

An enormous congratulations to Kieran Finnerty who became Welsh Champion Boxer in the 60kg category on Saturday 1st February 2014

Congratulations to Kieran Finnerty who became Welsh Champion Boxer on Saturday 1st February 2014.

16 year old Kieran, a Year 12 student, triumphed in the 60kg category, resulting in becoming Wales' Youth Champion. Kieran fought a fiercely contested match, beating Swansea's Levi Griffiths who had won the title for the last two years. Standing at 6' 2", Kieran's opponent had a significant advantage in terms of reach, yet Kieron's superior punching power enabled him to win the three round bout. Kieran now faces the Year 11 Welsh Champion on the weekend, to earn his place in the British Finals in Edinburgh next month. Good luck Kieran
