Joe Hughes – In Focus

Joe Hughes talks to Dan Kelly of Squared Circle Boxing ahead of his appearance on the card of BRAGGING RIGHTS next month…

The Nottingham-based 22-year old looks back at his early career, talks about his relationship with fellow pro boxer Nathan Kirk and with Scott Calow – ‘He’s a brilliant manager and a great friend’ – and looks ahead to his fight in July.

“I’m feeling fit and strong, getting sharper and sharper,” says Joe. “I train to go the rounds – if it goes four rounds, it goes four rounds – if I knock him out earlier then that’s a bonus.”

BRAGGING RIGHTS comes to Nottingham’s Harvey Hadden Stadium on Saturday 6 July – tickets are still available, priced £40 for unreserved seating and £60 for VIP ringside, from Joe and other boxers on the card.
