TEAM Leigh Boxing's Matty Burgess claimed his sixth consecutive North West Region title on at Walkden in the England Boxing Youth Championships.

The 17 year old England international middleweight turned in another vintage all-action performance, controlling all three rounds to take a unanimous points victory over the talented and previously unbeaten Tyler Doherty of Bridgewater Salford.

Matty now moves on to the National Finals Weekend in Durham in two weeks.

Team Leigh junior boxers Connor Winstanley and Wes Holding both took part in support bouts and put in cracking performances despite losing out to split decisions.
