So you want to be a boxer?

At 50 years old, I found myself at my first ever boxing match. It was an ‘interesting’ evening which took place in a marquee at Haverhill Football club.There were definitely some good fights, some of which actually took place in the ring!
We were there to support Janine’s partner, Cookie who was defending his heavy weight title (see, I know all the lingo).
His was the last of 26 fights which meant we had to wait until half past midnight to watch him which is way past my bedtime. This photo is of a fight from earlier in the evening cos obviously, if I can get 2 blips from one night out, I’m not going to say no.
