Amateur career

At amateur level, Belshaw fought for the Eastside ABC in Belfast and won five Irish titles and a number of Ulster championship titles.

After what Belshaw considered a poor decision during an quarter final fight of the 2006 Irish senior championship when he was disqualified for holding despite being ten points up in a fight with Michael McDonagh, Belshaw left the amateur ranks and decided to become a professional with Frank Maloney.

Professional career

Debut

Belshaw turned professional in October 2006 in Belfast, Northern Ireland on an undercard of bill that included James Gorman and Martin Rogan. In his debut Belshaw defeated fellow debutant Englishman Lee Webb with a first round knockout in the first ten second of the fight.
