JAY Reidy faces the toughest test of his boxing career in Swindon on Saturday night.
The Hereford fighter puts his Tank Promotions Novice light-heavyweight title on the line against Alex Bozarth in a five-round clash between unbeaten fighters.
Reidy has won his last two fights inside a round – but expects Bozarth to be much tougher.
He’s won all four fights, trains with professionals – and could be around 4kgs heavier.
Reidy said: “I really rate him.
“I’ve seen a couple of his fights and he’s sharp. He’s only had four fights, but he’s a level above a four-fight novice. I’m expecting a long, hard night.
“I know it’s a challenge, but I want to be in big fights – and I want to keep my unbeaten record for as long as I can.”
