Hoo boxer Adam Dingsdale ready to take to the ring again on Friday night

Adam Dingsdale returns to the ring on Friday night insisting his fans have seen nothing yet.

The lightweight boxer from Hoo has made a winning start to his pro career and will face Slovakian Stefan Kollar in his third outing since emerging from the amateur ranks.

Kollar will be out to cause an upset but 24-year-old Dingsdale has confidence in own blossoming ability.

He said: “I want to improve on every performance.

“It’s coming on well and I’ve just been tightening up on all aspects of my boxing and there should be an all-round improvement.

“My last opponent came over here to win and he had boxed at a good level before. I had seen him beat a few good lads but he couldn’t beat me.

“People still haven’t seen the best of me and there are much better things to come. I’ll be looking to show how much I have improved.

“I’m definitely hitting harder and I’ll be looking to throw a lot more body punches.

“I am still only learning but considering the amount of fighting I have had I am going against people I wouldn’t normally at this stage. I am not going in against journeymen with one win in a 100.

“This kid (Kollar) has a winning record and my last opponents had fought at title level. I am being fast tracked but I want to be fighting for a title early next year, either the Southern Area or the British Masters.”

Dingsdale is one of seven English fighters up against eastern European opponents in Doncaster.

Kollar has fought five times since making his professional appearance in November last year, losing just one of those bouts.

“All I know about him (Kollar) is his record,” said Dingsdale.

“I’m just looking forward to seeing him in the weigh-in and sizing him out, I know I’ve done the hard work and so I’m sure I will be fine.”
