Top boxing promoter is to sign local fighter Watson

LENNOX Lewis' former manager is taking local bantamweight Bradley Watson under her wing.

Published

On Wednesday Kellie Maloney, formerly known as Frank Maloney – who guided heavyweight Lewis to the world title just over 20 years ago – will travel to the island to sign a managerial contract with the Guernsey boxer.

'My goal when I turned professional was that I told people I would be British champion,' said Mr Watson, 24.

'With Kellie on board, with her contacts and knowledge she can make that happen.

'She will be massive for raising my profile – there are fights in the pipeline.'
