‘I’ll be a champion inside 18 months’
Wednesday 10th August 2011, 1:00PM BST.
BOXER Bradley Watson flew back to Guernsey yesterday vowing to be British champion within 18 months despite the Town attack that put him in hospital.
Mr Watson, 20 (pictured), was treated in Southampton for a broken jaw after the incident in the early hours of Saturday morning.
He yesterday rejected suggestions that he would be out for up to two years.
‘This is a minor setback, that’s it. I will still be a British champion in 12 to 18 months,’ he said.
Mr Watson said surgeons had told him that he would be fighting by January.

Well he’s certainly got the mouth of a champion but as David Haye found out, that’s not always enough.
Best wishes for a speedy recovery though and I hope you fulfil your potential.
