JAMES MOORCROFT has targeted getting back into the domestic title picture when he returns to action. He was closing in on a British Welterweight title fight at the start of 2020, but came unstuck when he travelled to Scotland to tackle Martin Harkin in January, ending a 13 fight winning streak.

 

‘The Hindley Hammer’ was winning their British Welterweight title eliminator but was caught by a sledgehammer right in the fifth round and could no longer continue.

 

Momentum had been with Moorcroft who in 2019 stopped all four opponents he faced, Simon Henry, Jake Best, Sam Omidi and Eligio Palacios.

 

He had been trained by Lee Blundell, but has now teamed up with Anthony Crolla following a summer split.
