Down
but not out
Recently crowned British Light Heavyweight champion Nick Baird suffered
a major set back this week, Ko’d but not in the ring. The unbeaten
Saintfield man was floored as he suffered from severe stomach pains
early in the week after a visit to his GP the New British champion
was rushed to hospital diagnosed with appendicitis. Nick was put on
a priority operating list and had his appendix removed on Wednesday
night. Doctors believe it could be a few months before he’ll
be back in action - but girl friend Julie said, now I’ll have
time to spoil him with some extra TLC as he’ll not be training
all the time now. Lucky Nick!
All at Forkicks along with Nick’s Prokick colleagues wish him
a very speedy recovery and look forward to seeing him back at training
and competing in the very near future.
