Morecambe boxer Reece MacMillan has landed himself a big title fight as local boxers continue to make waves in the sport.

MacMillan will face Kane Gardner for the vacant Central Area Super Lightweight Title in Farnworth on Saturday November 23.

The bout will also be an eliminator for the English Title.

MacMillan has a professional record of 16 wins from 17 bouts and has won his last 12 fights in a row.

His last fight was a points win over Fonz Alexander in May.

Reece trains in Morecambe with respected local fight coach Bob Howard, who also works with other local professional boxers including Isaac Lowe, Owen Kirk, Walter Fury and the former world heavyweight champion Tyson Fury.

Troy Gallagher, a standout amateur boxer from the Coastal boxing gym in Morecambe, is also due to turn pro soon under Howard's guidance.

Kirk will also return to the ring this Sunday with a fight in Liverpool.
