Golden Boy McCallum Aims for First Title

Edinburgh’s Golden Boy John McCallum takes the long trip from Edinburgh to London next week for his first title bout when he takes on Baltic Champion Adam Grabiec for the International Masters Light- Middleweight title.  McCallum only recently penned a deal with Goodwin Promotions head honcho Steve Goodwin and this will be his second fight under the Goodwin banner.

I am not the only Scottish fighter in the bill with Paul Appleby taking on one of Steve’s hottest prospects in the light welterweight division Philip Bowes. I do promise the Scottish fans that they will be seeing at least one winner. I will be going back to Edinburgh with my first title belt around my waist.”
