Austin Newall was on top form at Ravenscraig to claim the 48kg title
A East Kilbride youngster is celebrating after landing a Scottish boxing title at Ravenscraig last month, which he hopes can be his first step on the road to a professional career.
Austin, a St Andrew’s and St Bride’s High School pupil, knocked down his semi-final opponent Alfie Barr in the first 10 seconds of their bout to secure his shot at the title. Now Austin hopes this can be the catalyst for more success and, ultimately, a shot at going professional in the future.“My final was really close and the semi-final was really good. It felt amazing to win it and I was really chuffed doing it with my family there.“I’m going to try and get as many amateur fights as I can now and go to the Western District Championships early next year. That’s the next thing I’ll be training for.
