Colin, who was known as “Sweet C” as a professional boxer, became a two-time British Featherweight Champion – winning a Lonsdale belt in record time – Commonwealth Featherweight Champion in 1991 and World Featherweight Champion in 1992.

In his first defence, a dislocated shoulder saw him lose his title. After regaining and losing the British Featherweight title in 1997, Colin officially announced his retirement.

Today, Colin divides his time between running his own boxing agency, property developing, commentary and event organising.
