Keeping up with the Joneses

Two West Midlands boxers will be bidding for title glory when they face one another next month.

Brierley Hill’s Connor Lee Jones and Chasetown’s Luke Jones will battle it out for the vacant Midlands area super featherweight belt at Dudley Town Hall on Saturday, April 18.

The duo will go toe-to-toe for the strap last held by Josh Bailliee, who announced his retirement from boxing recently.

Luke will be hoping to avenge his narrow area title loss to James Beech Jr at featherweight in December 2019.

This will be Connor Lee’s first foray into championship rounds as he looks to extend his unbeaten record to six.

The undercard features Jason Welborn, Tyler Denny and Danny Ball, while Coseley’s Ryan Corrigan makes his ring return and Ethan Collins debuts alongside fellow Dudley pugilist Ruben Campbell.
