INTERVIEWS: Boxers Reece MacMillan and Troy Gallagher ready for biggest fights of their careers

Troy Gallagher and Reece MacMillan

Two local boxers are ready to rumble in the biggest fights of their careers on the same bill.

Reece MacMillan will fight for the Central Area Super Lightweight Title at the De Vere Whites Hotel in Bolton on Saturday night (November 30).

On the same night, Troy Gallagher will make his professional boxing debut at light heavyweight against Victor Edagha of Italy.

MacMillan, who has a professional record of 16 wins in 17 fights, will take on Manchester's Kane Gardner, whose record is 17 wins in 20 bouts as a pro.

Gallagher came through the ranks at the Coastal Amateur Boxing gym in Morecambe.

Both boxers are trained by Bob Howard, whose Stone Hands Boxing stable also includes Morecambe's featherweight contender Isaac Lowe and Walter Fury from Lancaster, cousin of former world heavyweight champion Tyson Fury.
