Peter McGrail believes he will be taking his first steps towards challenging for titles this weekend as he opened up on his move to Matchroom.
One of Merseyside's most decorated amateur boxers, McGrail returns to the ring for the first time on Saturday night since he beat Hironori Miyake at the Ariake Arena in Tokyo back in December. And the 26-year-old, who trains out of the renowned Everton Red Triangle gym under Paul Stevenson, only has one thing on his mind as he prepares to return to action.
"My first six fights I had four in Liverpool, headlined my own bill, then I boxed in Dubai and boxed in Japan, so I've had some belter experiences in my first six fights,” he told the ECHO.
