The 20-year-old made his debut as recently as August of last year with a six round win over Dean Jones and followed it up with another six-round victory over Lee Connelly in November.
Speaking about doing six rounds so early Phil Sutcliffe trained fighter who is being kept busy by Frank Warren said: “I learned loads and I think doing six definitely does move you up a bit quicker.
“I’ve noticed the opponents I’m getting are a lot tougher compared to the opponent some other lads who are starting off on four-rounders were in against. Then Frank has a few boys who started well before me who are only just moving on to six-round fights themselves.”
