Boxer Chris is ‘looking sharp’

DUNDEE Amateur Boxing Club are back in training for the new season with supremo Greg Menzies reporting a decent number coming along.

The club are not against travelling far and wide to shows with a trip to Whithorn in south-west Scotland one of their ports of call and the likelihood is their colours will again be seen at shows up and down the country.

Greg has high hopes of his squad doing well again this season.

He is hoping a couple of Polish youngsters show promise and he added: “Chris McComiskie and Malcolm Mitchell are among the others who have been doing well in training.”

Greg went on: “Chris will be competing at welterweight and will be aimed at the Intermediate section. Hopefully, he may also box in the Open class.

“He’s a good prospect who has looked sharp in training having kept his fitness up.”
