Coach Gerry Higgins knows IBO Continental champion David Jamieson is living up to his Real Deal nickname, but reckons he’ll have to go full-time if he is to really kick on from his big win.
Higgins, who coaches at Priestfield Boxing Club in Blantyre, says the cruiserweight boxer will need to step things up and hopes sponsorship deals will flood in following his win over Swedish champion Samo Jangirov at Trump Turnberry on Friday night.
Jangirov took construction workshop manager Jamieson over 10 rounds, but the Westwood star won by unanimous decision.
