Commonwealth Appearances

With a European Championship gold already under his belt in 2022, Harris Akbar will be looking to add a Commonwealth to his collection this summer.

The 23-year-old light-middleweight bounced back from first-round defeat at the World Championships to go all the way in Yerevan, and add to his collection which boasts a Commonwealth Youth Games medal from 2015.

The Bradford bruiser will now hope to take his form to Birmingham as part of Team England's boxing squad.

Team England brought 14 boxers to Birmingham, with the group consisting of 8 men and 6 women.
