I don’t know if the name Harrison Bennett means anything to you guys who know boxing?

At the gym today and there was this young lad on the boxing bag. Not the usual lad just hitting it, it was pretty clear that this lad knew what he was doing.

Anyway I had a bit of a chat and it turns out he’s pretty useful.

17 and a Midland champion (I think that’s what he said)
I’m in Northfield, so must be a local lad to me.

Will anyone be watching Katie Taylor tonight?
I watched it and Cameron was a clear winner. Chuffed for her...from Nuneaton isn't she?
I daresay she earned a few quid as well.

Northampton.
I was close with the N....lol

Which gym?
I have heard of a Harrison Bennett but he's a wrestler and older than 17.

Three bills tonight. And the promoters wonder why boxing is struggling.

I was watching Jack Caterall because I can't stand Michael Conlon. Caterall was okay although nothing spectacular; Josh Taylor should beat him easily next time round.

Okolie might end up on negative points :-)  everytime McGuigan shouts ‘ref’ he takes a point off :-)
