Joe Cordina

Joe Cordina is the pride of Cardiff and a reminder that Welsh world champions are genuinely rare birds. Born 1991, he had a strong amateur pedigree, Commonwealth bronze in 2014, European gold in 2015, and the 2016 Olympics, before turning pro and twice winning the IBF super-featherweight world title. What I rate is the style: he wins with timing, ring craft and composure rather than wild slugging, the thinking fighter's approach. He also fought back from injury layoffs that could have derailed him entirely. A two-time world champion out of Wales carries a whole nation's pride, and he wears it well. Quietly one of Britain's best.
