SUKI Dhami, the younger brother of Harry, the British welterweight champion, made a name for himself in the ring last Saturday.
Boxing at light-welterweight in the Southern Counties' ABA Novices Championship at Hastings, Suki stopped his rival in the second of the two-round final.
It was a superb show by Suki who, two hours earlier, had beaten his semi-final rival on points, also over two rounds, while his final rival had the benefit of a bye to the decider.
Suki will now meet the winner of the Western Counties Championship in the next stage of the event on November 17 two days before Harry defends his title against Ireland's Neil Sinclair in Glasgow.
