Two weeks ahead of his fight on The Main Event in Bolton next month, Chad took advantage of the opportunity to do some world class sparring in Holland yesterday.

With his coach Dean Sugden, he made the trip to Breda to spar with some of the best 70-80kg fighters in the world at Hemmers Gym, home to to kickboxing stars Robin Van Roosemalen and Marc de Bonte.

“It’s been a top experience and has finished off my sparring nicely for 7 June,” said Chad.  “Now I can’t wait to return to the show on which I made my pro debut in Manchester two years ago!”
