“We’re trying to get Alex Hopkins, Dylan Clegg, Brackan Kirk, Matt Brierley, Declan Cairns, Matt Court, Jordan Eshelby and Nathan Keogh matched.”
“Training is going very well, we’ve upped it a notch and this will be the first show for years that has had all Worksop lads fighting on it.”
Clegg is riding high after beating Kettering ABC’s Tom Biddle earlier in the month.

A unanimous decision went to the Worksop fighter, who has also picked up the Notts and Lincs Schoolboy Championship after his opponent failed to turn up in Nottingham a fortnight ago.
The fight night at the arena will begin at 7.30pm, with boxing commencing at 8pm.
