TWO Bury Boxing Club members fought at a show at Audley Sports Centre in Blackburn last weekend.
Yusuf Khan, aged 14, took part in a skills bout against S Khan from Blackburn Cobra ABC at 54k, while Reece Khan, aged 10, lost on points to Reece Faisal from Leeds.
The youngster, from Bolton, was taking part in his first contest, and Bury club coach Mick Jelley praised his performance.
“He did really well in his first fight,” said Jelley.
“It was a good fight and he showed he has some talent. I was really pleased with him.
“He has something and he could do really well if he sticks at it.”
