| Going for Gold: Jackson Collins is presented with Golden Glove title by Corporal Alex Urrutia. |
Dudley teenage boxing star Jackson Collins was as proud as punch after he triumphed at the national final of the Royal Navy ABA Golden Gloves Championships.
The 13-year-old, who trains at the Priory Park ABC, won his final bout to take the gold medal at the event held in Knottingley, West Yorkshire.
The delighted teenager said: "I've been training very hard for it and it was a bit of a tricky fight but I was so glad to have won."
Also in the finals was Priory Park ABC team-mate, Luke Parrock.
The Dudley youngster fought his way to second place at the national finals in the 44kg category.
