Hoo lightweight Adam Dingsdale tops the bill as professional boxing returns to Medway Park in 2015
00:00, 21 November 2014
Medway Park will again stage professional boxing, early next year.
Hoo lightweight Adam Dingsdale will headline the show, as he did during the last event there in September 2013.
Medway-based boxing manager Joe Elfidh is helping organise the show, along with main promoter Steffy Bull, who is Dingsdale’s manager.
Elfidh has many Medway professionals under his Box2Win stable and most, if not all, will be on the show. He is looking to sign up another two, so far unnamed, local amateurs ahead of the event, which will be screened live on the internet.
Around 1,000 tickets will eventually go on sale.
Elfidh said: “These lads are going up to London to fight but they should be building up their home support in Kent first. I’ve got lots of Kent professional fighters who are going to be able to perform in front of their own fans now in Medway.
“All the paperwork has been sorted, it’s been agreed and the British Boxing Board of Control are on board. It’s going to be a sell-out.”
