Isaan Gym prospect Kieron Hilditch did his Oldham club proud at the 'We Can Fight' show at the Ashton Masonic Hall.

Fighting on another popular Darren Phillips-promoted show, Hilditch (aged 19) defeated Aaron Healy from the All Powers Gym in Stockport.

In what was his second C Class fight in the 54kg category, Hilditch roared to a majority decision victory.

Isaan Gym head coach Steve Donnelly said: "This was a superb fight.

"It was a fantastic performance by Kieron and I'm delighted for him because he has worked very hard in the gym.

"People are now starting to take notice of this kid.

"He has a very bright future indeed."
