Jacky Watson, 48kg, and Jimmy Smith, 60kg, both displayed strong all-round performances in the 3x2-minute rounds at Chingford’s Assembly Rooms on Sunday to take the titles.

And another club boxer Cameron Paul, who is the European champion, will also be fighting at the event in Cheshunt next year.

Head coach Michael Shinkwin said: “It is brilliant. Having Cameron here as well, it just shows it breathes through the club.

“They look up to him and when they head into the tournament next year the titles are there for the taking.

“Jacky is 5-0 and Jimmy has 10 wins in 12. They both have great records.This win only gives them a confidence boost.

"They will meet the same boys as they did on Sunday and they know they have already fought and won against them.”
