IBF Featherweight World Champion Lee Selby entertained Vale audiences with tales of his career, writes Christina Hartery.
Lee was joined by co speaker Enzo 'Big Mac' Maccarinelli, former WBO Cruiserweight Champion, who also shared stories of his illustrious boxing careers, as Nicky Piper MBE and former Commonwealth light heavyweight champion interviewed them both with skill.
This event, on Friday, March 10, in Cowbridge, was also auctioning boxing memorabilia in aid of George Thomas Hospice Care in Cardiff, of which Nicky is the fundraising manager.

Bidding went well as the audience snapped up wonderful items such as a signed Mike Tyson photo and Frank Bruno glove as well as a Jack Dempsey Boxing Glove and photo to name but a few items.
Lee is also supporting a key charity, A Fighting Chance for Dean Francis - a UK Champion boxer and family man diagnosed with cancer with only a year to live.

Lee is looking to take on Carl Frampton in his next big fight, hopefully in Cardiff, that would potentially be a great show between two of Britain’s brightest boxing talents.
