England captain Reynolds wins in Norway

Reynolds took on Norwegian international Martin Larsen, who has had over 80 fights, as the 20-year-old won all three rounds to triumph on points.

On the bout itself, the Lutonian said: “In the first round, I got straight to work controlling the centre just using my jab to keep him at range and picked my shots very smartly.

“When round two came I stepped it up another gear working head and body.

“As I was hurting him the home crowd were cheering his name so it made me work even harder.

“While in the last round I knew I was winning but I wanted to make it a very clear victory.

“So I counter punched, making sure I wasn’t getting hit and he wasn’t scoring.

“Winning abroad is very hard so getting that win means a lot to be and it can be the start of things to come.”

Reynolds was also named captain of the squad for the contest in Oslo, as he continue: “Before we walked out to the arena the coaches spoke to us all and said they decided who they wanted to be England captain.

“It was a unanimous decision for me and all the England lads shook my hands and were happy for me. It was an honour and I was buzzing.”

Reynolds will next be fighting at Luton Rugby Club on February 12.
