The teenager becomes the youngest in the history of Pro Boxer and wins in his debut in Thailand

Callum Dan became the youngest professional boxer in Great Britain in just a month after his 16th birthday and provided an impressive debut win in Thailand. After celebrating the 16th birthday in March and among the preparations for GCSE, Dan, under the mentoring of coach Marlee Dann, he is already waving with a paid boxing debut during the Easter break. Dan dominated in a welterweight match with the Thai opponent Noy vongsoudouunag, stopping the fight within two rounds in the Thai boxing gym based in Tanyaburi, on the outskirts of Bangkk, April 6.
Callum sent his debutant to the canvas, and then fired a dam in the second round, which led to a plain KO. The teenager remains in Thailand, preparing for the next professional meeting on April 24, before he returns home to Plymouth. Although he does not qualify for the British Board of Control license due to age restrictions, Dan secured his professional status through the Thai Federation, which has been accepting fighters from the age of 15.
Marlee Dann, who trains Callum in Intense ABC in Honicknowle, praised the origin of his intern over 30 amateur fights. Dann’s coach said Plymouth live: “Callum was an elite amateur as a junior and as youth, but at that moment he began to disappear from the gym – I talked to his dad, who was worried that he was turning away from boxing, so I said that I would talk to him.”
“He just told me that he had 30 amateur competitions, he never felt like he was outclassed, but some decisions did not go, and being from the southwest, everything is against us.
“So I talked to his dad, who talked to several friends, and he managed to get sponsorship to assist pay flight and accommodation costs, and I brought him here. He had his debut of the sixth and has his next fight 24.
“He is not licensed as part of the British boxing council, he is licensed as part of the Thai Federation, but it is not really different.”
Callum will probably have to return to Southeast Asia to the box until he reaches 18 years, but by that time his trainer thinks that he can be well oriented in fighting in longer competitions-with amateurs constrained to only three rounds.
Dann said: “I think the key to this is that he jumps over other people … Callum could be 11-0 in the first 18 months to two years, so before he is 18 years venerable, he will overtake boxers who spent years building their skills and their record.
“[In the UK] I could have Callum in the gym for two years, convince him to box as amateurs for the next two years, if he changed a professional at the age of 18, he must follow the same path as other boxers who spent years fighting only three times a year.
“It’s windy – you look at other boxers and end your career because of inaction. They move from the fight as amateurs every week or every other week to when they can fight three times a year.”
“But how do you adapt to the fight with four three, six three or eight three rounds, when you only fight three times a year? Or four, if you are lucky?” He talks about elated Asian connections that opened the door: “I am in a elated position in which I met very good people in Asia, and gave me the opportunity because they consider me their friend to put my fighters.
“Callum is now the youngest professional boxer in Great Britain at the age of 16 and month and is one win and without failures.
“I think that the direction is that when you look at one of the greatest boxers of all time and at what age they became professionals, they were relatively newborn – not everyone, but most of them.”
Dann derives inspiration from the iconic master: “Look at Manny Pacquiao – he had 10 fights and 10 wins at the age of 17. So when you sit there, you think:” If it worked for him, why he can’t act for other people ” – there is nothing wrong with getting out of other paths and other routes.”
“At the end of the day, if you had 30 amateur competitions, you know if you are created for professionals-if you are the best in the country or the best in Europe, you know what you are able to do. And if you have faith in yourself, you know where you have to adapt.
“The most vital thing is that the person you have is a training in the gym, sparring with elite people and being what they should be. If they are to be a six -story or eighty warrior, they must be trained to be that.
“Callum is very lucky because he has the right tips at his life at a point where he could either go left or go to the right. He either goes away from boxing and accepts that he was a decent amateur, or turns right and chases a dream that is crazy, but I think most people from the Western world are not advanced to their ambition.
“For him he chased ambitions, this is a dream for the next three to five years, and if it delays him, what his story.”
