Former England
cricket captain Andrew Flintoff is ready to start a new career in sport as a boxer.
Flintoff is to be granted a licence to compete as a professional heavyweight
boxer and could debut as early as December. Flintoff has been working hard to
get into shape; he’s lost more than two stone after 10 weeks of intensive training
with Barry McGuigan. His current weight is reported to be under 16 stone,
meaning he’s got a shade more work to do to drop into the optimum weight range.
There have been a few eyebrows raised about Flintoff’s decision to come into boxing
with many thinking it’s just a big PR stunt. Lets hope his decision to try
boxing is based on his love for the sport and that he genuinely wants to
achieve something within boxing.
