I'm a fan of Adam, no nonsense style and seems like a decent kidda. (and i'm a sheffield lad :TU: )

My only advice would be, last time i saw him, he was a bit cocky in the ring (Can't remember the fight now) putting the arms up before he had won etc. I hate all that bollox but to be fair, young lad growing in the game, nothing wrong with confidence i suppose.

Hope he keeps it real, i live in London now and its not only sheffileders that look for his results/ fights.

He's built himself a decent following.
I think recently he was training at Brendan's.
Some of the lads post on here so maybe they'll give us their opinion.
Good luck to the kid - another decent prospect from Sheffield.

He knocked out a lad I used to train with in the first round in the Midland Novice Finals. Remembered the name since. A style simply made for the pro's!!!

They definitely need to keep him on towards the end of small hall bills at the moment.

Once his last fight had finished (Hillsborough), over half the remaining audience got up and left - no joke.

I was very disappointed with the Sky coverage as well.
I thought he and Scott Jenkins were nailed on to be shown live, instead of which we got the Pryce fight.
Adam is fighting again on 26th April - charity dinner show in Sheffield.
Anybody needing further details pm me, tickets £60 and £75.
Scott Jenkins on as well.
Both lads have bright futures.

Aye, but had Etches been shown live (i.e. first) the hall would have been less than half empty for the main event (Buckland v Trussy) and with very little atmosphere...I'm sure they'll have him on soon me old pal.

Dondada,
On the lead up, it was intimated that it would be Jenkins live then main event then Etches live.
That would have worked better for me.

Was it? Oh, right. Yes, that would have been good too...though the Pryce fight was a good un.

Got to be the biggest ticket seller in the country at this stage of his career, 500+ tickets. He must be keeping all his fans happy, I cant say enough about Adam after watching his highlights on ringside and seeing some of his fights on youtube, You can hear on the videos that all the fans are right behind him and its great to see. A credit to the sport at such an early stage of his career, Hope he goes all the way and who knows we could have another Ricky Hatton on our hands, Solid puncher and a favourite with the fans, I hope so.
