Danny & John

Hello welcome to the page on two of our star boxers Danny & John Dignum, these two boys have been at Newham since the age of nine starting in the nursery group for the beginners. These two boys have now gone on to make history which is quite a amazing thing which they done. Danny & John made history by both winning a national championship on the same day as they are the 1st identical twins ever to do so. Danny has won the national Golden Gloves championship once and boxed for England three or four times winning silver medal in Ireland in the four nations competition. John has gone on to win the Golden Gloves two times out of as many entries John is hoping to land a third consecutive title to his collection by doing so in the Golden Gloves championship, John also won gold two times out of two in the four nations by keeping his number one spot in the England line up.
