Hide AdHis opponent is yet to be confirmed but one of the favourites to get through is a boxer from Macclesfield. Should he progress it will be deja-vu for Vanzie as the pair met recently in a sparring session which proved close with each fighter winning two rounds.
In preparation for the fight Vanzie has been sparring at a gym in York to face new fighters and hopefully provide him with some different and testing opposition.
