Big-hitting Bonsu who was born in Ghana and is therefore eligible to fight for both the European and Commonwealth titles has twenty wins, eighteen of them coming by way of knockout or stoppage with just a
solitary defeat coming over three years ago on Christmas Day 2002.

British boxing after signing a promotional deal with the Maloney’s.
The man with the intriguing nickname of ‘Sugar the Ball Brains’ has stopped each of his last thirteen opponents since losing to Mehidi and has picked up a national title and a couple of fringe World titles along the way.
