Sam Gilley is putting a disappointing year behind him as he prepares to face Aston Brown in Glasgow, stepping up to middleweight in the process. Following a draw with Gideon Onyenani and a narrow loss to Ishmael Davis in his bid for the British super-welterweight title, Gilley is determined to revive his career. "I believe I won both fights, it was just a poor year that taught me valuable lessons about myself and my character," Gilley stated.
Despite the setbacks, he remains eager to claim the Lonsdale belt, an ambition that continues to drive him. Gilley has, however, ruled out a rematch with Louis Greene, citing the collapse of their previously planned fights as a significant waste of his time. "I'm willing to fight anyone, but I will never give Louis Greene another opportunity.
He wasted two years of my career, and that's something I won't forget," Gilley emphasized. As he prepares to face Brown, a formidable opponent with a background in international amateur boxing, Gilley is confident in his ability to withstand the challenge. "I was built for the tough side of professional boxing.
Let's see if Brown can handle it," he said, expressing his determination to succeed and make his career pay off.
