Willie Limond

This led to a showdown with fellow Scotsman "Amazing" Alex Arthur for the British Superfeatherweight title on 12 December 2003 at the Braehad Arena, Glasgow.

Following his loss to Alex Arthur, Limond went on to pick up a few more wins before earning himself a shot at European Boxing Union Superfeatherweight title.

He fought the French champion Youssouf Djibaba on 19 June 2004, at the Braehead Arena, the same venue where he had a lost to Alex Arthur almost a year earlier.

After a series of victories over journeyman and a successful defence of his newly won crown against Spain's Alberto López, in subsequent bouts Limond moved on from the EU title.

After signing with promoter Tommy Gilmour, Limond scored an easy six-round decision over Polish journeyman Arek Malek at the Kelvin Hall, Glasgow in June 2011.

Willie returned from the Anthony Crolla setback with a routine 6 round win over Englishman William Warburton in Dundee, after moving up to light welterweight from lightweight.

2013 began with a bang when Willie Limond fought fellow Scot Eddie Doyle, the unbeaten British masters champion, for the Commonwealth light welterweight title.
