Athlete Resume

Patrick is performing extremely well at international level. He has represented England in the Schoolboy European Championships for the past two years, winning a bronze medal in 2009 and gold in 2010. Patrick got into the sport through his brother who is four time national champion and an England international. His sporting hero is Floyd Mayweather and is working hard in the gym, training six days a week to make it to the top.

Due to his size and reputation Patrick struggles to find suitable sparring partners but this has not stopped him from becoming 3 Nations, National and European schoolboy champion within the last year. He is aiming to compete at the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio.
