I was sent to take some pictures of Ballymena Athletics Club a few days ago, at The Antrim Forum. Not every job you get is a world champion boxer or a glamour job, but these girls are going to represent their country and it’s an honour, the fact that so many girls are from the same athletics club is just unbelievable. So it was a dull day in Antrim ( Hard to Believe ) but yes it was a typically wet dull afternoon, on top of that these girls are training, so i had to wait until each girl had a break in their training, shoot the pic then move away, wait for another girl to have a break in their training then shoot the next girl.

I really enjoyed the night, as the girls were pleased to do something different, and not have them with one foot forward pretending to run.

Anyone who knows me, knows i have a real soft spot for Carl, I just think he’s one of the best fighters i have ever seen !

He’s the nicest guy you will ever meet, nothing is a bother to this guy. He will be world champion, i’m sure of it. Tonight he got another step closer to that by winning the vacant Super Bantamweight Title.
