The 28-year-old Englishman, from Sheffield, took a congratulatory call from WBC boss Mauricio Sulaiman in the locker-room at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn and later said: “There is no words. A lifelong dream of hard work, sacrifice, and it was all for this moment. “My dad, Grant, my whole family, it was all worth it. I always knew. I always believed. There’s a message to anyone, you believe in yourself, go out and chase your dreams.”
