Tal Singh started boxing at the age of 18, he exceeded his early expectations as he triumphed at English level last year, an historic achievement for a Sikh boxer. He acknowledges that boxing is not a popular sport in his community, he hopes his title success will inspire more widespread participation.

Singh expects to target the light-flyweight division, but his ambitions do not stop there as he sees to become a pioneering champion in the paid ranks.
