Josh Catterall was a young lad who sadly passed away last year aged 20. He left behind not only just his family but his little girl and pregnant partner.

On 8th July we will be having a memorial boxing night in his memory set up by Jody Meikle.

I will be training from now till July 8th to get in try and get in shape and get fit ready for the fight.

I will be trying to raise as much as possible, so please give generously for this great cause.

I didn't know Josh but I know how tough it is to lose somebody suddenly as the Catterall family must have felt.

I've always liked watching boxing but have never tried before so I have loads to learn with only 8 weeks training.

Raising the money for Josh's children is a really great cause. I will be fighting in my brother Sean Michael Ladley s memory. Sean died in February this year at the young age of 44 and I know he would have loved this event and will be there in spirit.

Every single penny raised will be going straight to Josh's children and it will be a great event with the children and families in the forefront of our minds.
