Murray aims to turn fighter Nick Campbell into a great Scot
Cannock promoter Scott Murray hopes to play a part in rewriting boxing history, writes Matthew Bozeat.
Scotland has never produced a challenger for the British heavyweight championship and Murray believes he knows who can end years of hurt for the big men from north of the border.
Murray is half Scottish – father Alan was from Falkirk – and had 108 amateur bouts as a heavyweight before going on to own the venue now known as Bar Sport.
He set up the Excelsior Sporting Club last year and his next show will feature the current Scottish heavyweight champion, Nick Campbell.
‘The Glasgow Warrior’ will top the bill in the Premier Suite on Thursday, March 21 and Murray says he’s looking forward to helping the 6ft 7ins, 19 stones puncher fulfil his potential.
