The Story

It started in a community gym in Rugby.

Cole walked into his first boxing session as a teenager looking for an outlet. He found a craft — and the discipline to chase it for the rest of his life.

Years of unseen work followed. 5am roadwork. Six-day training weeks. Sparring with seasoned pros twice his experience. He built the patience to learn, and the will to keep going when nobody was watching.

In 2024, that work made him a Haringey Box Cup Champion — one of the most respected amateur titles in world boxing. The title isn't the destination. It's the proof.

Family. Faith. Focus.
A future champion in the making.
