Boxer Jez ‘Smoking’ Wilson training hard at Woodlands!

Sheffield based professional boxer Jez 'Smoking' Wilson has been training hard at Woodlands Fitness Centre in preparation for the biggest fight of his career to date.

Jez who is undefeated in all six of his professional bouts is fighting for the central area title on 16th April in his home town of Birmingham.

Jez fights out of the Glynn Rhodes boxing gym in Hillsborough, Sheffield and is a full-time fireman. To ensure he is in the best shape of his life for the bout he has hired the skills of Matt Sanderson, a Performance Enhancement Specialist to oversee his strength and conditioning sessions at Woodlands Fitness Centre.

"Since training with Matt on a one to one basis twice per week I have noticed a big improvement in the way I move and the amount of strength, and power I can produce. I move better, hit harder and can't wait to take this into the ring in April", commented Jez.

"Jez has been a pleasure to train, he has listened to the advice offered and put it into practice. His commitment to training is amazing and I am sure all the sacrifices he has made leading up to the fight will pay off, everyone at Woodlands wants to wish Jez all the best for his bout", added Matt.

The fight is expected to feature on Sky Sports on Friday 16th April from 10pm.
