BARRY boxer Jonathan O’Kelly will make his debut in the new boxing season, Never Back Down, when it comes to Newport Centre on September 30.

Cruiserweight O’Kelly completes the professional line-up, with the Celtic champion Mitchell Buckland headlining Sanigar Events' 12 fight show.

Mitchell holds an unblemished record so far and major domestic titles are on the horizon.

Currently undefeated in 11 fights Mitchell aims to emulate his brother Gary and win the coveted Lonsdale Belt.

Light heavyweight Nathan 'Thunder' Thorley steps up to six rounds as he works towards his dream of winning a title as he hopes to secure another victory. The former Commonwealth Games medallist has adapted well to the pro ranks and is undefeated in five contests.

Fellow Cardiff boxer Wayne Brooks will make his ring return at heavyweight, undefeated in his last three fights Wayne will be looking for a second shot at the Welsh Title in 2017.

Cardiff light-middleweight JJ Evans boxes in Wales for the second time this year and is showing promise having not lost a single round in his two pro fights thus far.

Sonny Lee from Swansea is also boxing in the light-middleweight division making his second appearance in the ring after a slick performance in his debut against Lewis van Poetsch.

Lightweight duo Gavin Gwynne and Kristian Touze, both winners on the Merthyr Mayhem show back in July, will look to keep the momentum going in their second pro fights.

Mason Jones from Pontypool will fight in Wales for the first time following on from an impressive debut in Bristol in July.

Former Commonwealth Games Bronze medallist in Delhi 2010 Kieron Harding makes a return to the ring following an impressive debut win back in 2013.

Along with O’Kelly, two other boxers will make their debuts.

Pierre Lima from Cardiff hopes to make waves in the stacked Welsh light heavyweight division and Dean 'Silky' Fortt also of Cardiff aims to get his pro career off to a winning start.
