Britons Scotney & Dixon Win World Title Fights, Gill v Barrett Next

Some quotes from Zelfa Barrett : 'Being from Manchester and topping the AO Arena, or the MEN Arena as a lot of people will always call it, is a massive achievement. I always knew at one point in my life I’d top it. Watching Hatton there, Crolla, Quigg – that motivates me. That makes me want to eat good and train hard. It makes me work harder in the gym because it’s my moment, it’s my time. People are spending their hard-earned money coming to see me. I'm not going to disappoint them.

He added: 'Not many people from my area reach the heights I’m reaching. A lot of people my age are in jail or have died. We’ve all done the same stuff as estate kids, been through the same things as estate kids. That’s why people respect me, because I’m from the same place they’re from. I had a great family to support me. Look at me now, topping the AO Arena. It’s a big thing for me, for my family and for Manchester. “We just did what estate kids done, we were all like a little family.
