"ANOTHER YEAR"

Well here we are again, with a successful 2006 now gone it's time to head into 2007 with all guns blazing. I'm hoping to try and defend my Australian Title a few times this year. March 9 will be my first test for 07 and from what I'm hearing it will be the biggest test to date. I will be defending my title against top prospect Dean Byrne, who is trained by the well respected and most successful trainer in Australia Johnny Lewis. I have not seen any of Dean's fights yet but I do know he's an Irish boxer who now lives in our country and is now an Australian himself, he's only had 4 pro fights so far but has won them all very convincingly, from what I hear has represented his native country Ireland as an amateur and has had some 200 odd amateur fights. He's a very tall light welterweight so with his amateur experience, his height and reach advantage it should be a real good test to see where I'm at and one I'm really looking forward to.
Also we are trying to secure a fight with the good man of boxing Jonny Cotterill, he has other engagements at the moment but we're hoping by May we will be in the ring together.
This years aim is to have around 5 fights and all with the best opponents possible, I want to be in fights I'm not suppose to win and ones that give me a real challenge, I will be putting my belt and underfeated record on the line to make the most attractive fights to the Aussie fight fans.
Once again I am hoping to gain some good sponsors to get behind me in my journey, and along with my great team in my trainers Mark and Gareth, promoter Angelo from Ace Boxing Promotions, my family, friends and supporters I'm hoping we have an even bigger year and can't wait for it to begin, A special thanks to some people who are trying to help me out getting some sponsorship together has to go Greg Wallace, Jo Harden and Blacky. Once my sponsors have been finalized I will post them straight up on here.
I have been in training now for 2 weeks so the body is just being reminded of what it takes to become the best you can. Once again I can promise I'll leave no stone unturned.
Till next time
Stay safe and look forward to a big year.
