New Horizon Boxing Club to face England select team in Douglas
An Isle of Man boxing club is set to host its first ever show since forming five years ago.
Fighters from New Horizon Boxing Club will face off in a series of bouts against an England select team at the Palace Hotel in Douglas on Saturday (9 September).
Island competitors with a range of experiences will take part - the event is already sold out.
Club coach John Cain says events like these help aspiring young competitors develop in the sport:
