A boxer has his sights on the Commonwealth Games after winning a national competition.

Jersey’s Charlie Corbel, 21, won the England Boxing Development Championships 63.5kg category on 18 October after beating Guernsey boxer Tyler Quintal in the semi-final.

Corbel said he and Quintel were both examples of the talent emerging from the Channel Islands and he planned to enter more amateur boxing competitions, including the National Amateur Championships.

“If that puts me on the path to the Commonwealth Games, where I can wear the Jersey crest on my shirt, then that’s something I definitely want to do,” he said.
