Go for the ribs

SCOTS boxers gearing up for an international bout against Sweden on Saturday will train in a meat factory tomorrow (Thurs) for the big build up.

They will re-create scenes from the classic ‘Rocky’ series of movies where actor Sylvester Stallone’s character Rocky Balboa was working for a pittance at a meat factory in Philadelphia in the original hit movie released in 1976.

Members of the Scotland squad will limber up at the Malone Michael factory in New Market Road ahead of the Bring Boxing Back Home International Series which takes place at the Time Capsule in Coatbridge, Lanarkshire, at Noon on Saturday.
