A YOUNG boxer from Dalmellington has proved he's got the knockout blow to take the sport by storm.

David Burrell, 13, scooped the Scottish title recently at 34kg level. The Doon Valley ABC boxer was one of three club members to win at the recent Scottish Championships.

He beat Grangemouth's Matthew McHale to scoop national glory, to the delight of his dad Jack and Doon Valley ABC coach Sam Mullen.

He now goes into the British Championships in a fortnight's time.
