VAUXHALL Motors ABC Cruiserweight Wayne Adiniyi will make his ABA bow on Friday after qualifying for the national final.

His bout will be featured on Setanta Sports as they cover the entire ABA Finals card, the most sought-after prize after the Olympics in amateur boxing.

Last week Adiniyi travelled to Sheffield and dispatched Darryl Cullerton of Sunderland in the quarter final before putting away Simon Barclay of Corby ABC in the semi-final.

An aggressive, instinctive boxer, Adiniyi returns to Sheffield on Friday for the final as Vauxhall Motors’ only qualifier this season.
