"Genius" Joe Murray is fast closing in on the British
featherweight title.
24-year-old Joe, the younger brother of top class lightweight
John, won a bronze medal at the World Amateur Games in 2007 and was
part of the Great Britain squad that went to Beijing for the 2008
Summer Olympics.
He made his profesional debut shortly after signing with Hatton
Promotions and has not looked back since, racking up eleven
impressive wins.
On 18 June 2011, he won his first title by outboxing James
Ancliff over 12 rounds to claim the IBF International title.
