THAI Boxing champ, Joseph Tomlin
SCHOOLBOY Thai boxer Joe Tomlin packs quite a punch for a 12-year-old.
The youngster from Stoneleigh Park has already won 12 titles including a world crown after fighting in a tournament in Thailand.
Joe, a pupil at Counthill School, only took up Thai boxing four years ago.
In the intervening years Joe has won a range of honours from area, regional, English, British, European and even a world title following a visit to Bangkok.
Joe, who fights in the 32kg weight category, trains at Knuckles Muay Thai, Huddersfield Road, where he works with instructors Kevan Lloyd and Taz Tariq.
