Carluke boxer Jack Nicholas targets 2014 Commonwealth Games

A CARLUKE boxing sensation has targeted a Commonwealth Games gold medal for Scotland at the 2014 event in Glasgow.

Cleland Boxing Club member Jack Nicholas (13), of Greenfield Road, is full of confidence after a fine recent run of success which included him going on to win a Western District title despite being headbutted by his opponent in the second round!

“That incident burst my nose and made my eyes water,” said the first year Carluke High School pupil.
