Jordan Flynn begins his ABA Junior campaign today with a preliminary round clash at the University of East London.

The 17-year-old, from Oxford, will fight in the 63kg class against an yet-to-be-drawn opponent where he will look to go one better than last year when he lost in the 57kg final.

Flynn, a member of the Repton club in London, warmed up for today’s contest with a third-round stoppage of Milton Keynes’ Terry Reilly.
