Year 9 student, Aston, fought for the Junior European Title on Saturday 3rd June at Melksham Hall.
In the lead up to the fight, Aston had increased his training schedule to six days per week that featured hour long gym sessions combined with 5 mile runs and specialist skills training. The hard work and dedication paid off in the title fight as despite a resilient opponent, Aston’s mental toughness, skill and fitness led him to victory so that he was crowned as New Junior WRSA European Champion.
We have been told that towards the end of the year Aston will hopefully have a shot at a World Title against a French fighter and this will be confirmed later this year.
