Alex Arthur speaks - Makes Edinburgh Boxing Return SecondsOut (Jan 27, 2012) Doghouse Boxing - Tweet
SecondsOut.com - Alex Arthur will make his return to the ring on Saturday April 14 as
he headlines his own AAA Promotions’ bill at Meadowbank Sports Centre in
his native Edinburgh.
Arthur made his promotional debut in August last year and halted Georgia’s Aleksander Vakhtangashvili in the fourth round.
Discussing his forthcoming promotion Arthur said: “The Edinburgh
public have been asking me whenever I have been out and about when the
next promotion will be in Edinburgh and I can now confirm the date.
“I am delighted AAA Promotions will be back at Meadowbank as our
first show was a huge success and the talk of the town for days
afterwards.
“In terms of how I boxed, it was the best I had felt for a couple of
years as I am back training with Peter Harrison, was properly prepared
and boxing at light-welterweight.”
An opponent for Arthur will be named in the coming weeks and he is
looking to make 2012 a busy year. Arthur added: “I hope this will be the
first of three bouts this year and that I can fight for a title of some
sort at the end of the year.
“I had a really good break over the festive season and took care of a
few niggles. Now I am looking for 2012 to be a success by keeping
active in the ring and that AAA Promotions continues to thrive. We are
awaiting confirmation that a boxer, who I am sure will really appeal to
the Edinburgh fans, will be appearing on the undercard.”
