Horsham boxers are keen to put on a show
The February 11 show will host around 20 competitive bouts, with boys and girls from the age of 10 upwards competing.
Ferad Yetik, the club’s smallest boxer at just 28kg, is having his fourth bout and is looking to get his first win after being on the wrong end of a couple of bad decisions.
