The Commonwealth Games boxing tournament starts on Friday in Birmingham and leads directly to the Paris Olympics in 2024 for all of the English, Welsh and Scottish boxers.
On the Gold Coast four years ago, four of Great Britain's medal winners from Tokyo, won gold medals; Galal Yafai, Pat McCormack, Frazer Clarke and Lauren Price are now lost to the professional game. The GB boxers are in transition and that is why the Birmingham event is so important. Every single one of England's boxers from the Gold Coast have now turned professional.
