Hilarious moment “Wee Jay” gives “daggers” to former boxing champ Cardle

A HILARIOUS clip shows Celtic superfan Jay Beatty “staring daggers” at a huge boxer after he accidentally clipped him while warming up.

The 13-year-old, known as Wee Jay, is standing behind Scott Cardle, the former British Lightweight boxing champ, before a fight in Glasgow on Friday.

As Cardle warms up, his elbow accidentally catches Wee Jay, knocking his hat.

Wee Jay can be seen mouthing the work “ow” and then stares Cardle up and down as if he’s ready to go 12 rounds.

Wearing a bowler hat, suit, bow-tie and holding a large Celtic crest under his arm along with a toy dog, Wee Jay appeared as Cardle’s mascot for the bout.

Jay, who has Down’s Syndrome, captured the hearts of the Parkhead faithful when Hoops hero Georgios Samaras picked him up and carried him round the pitch as the team celebrated their league title in 2014.

27-year-old Cardle, from Lytham St Annes, Lancashire lost Friday’s lightweight title to Yorkshireman Robbie Barrett, who won the fight on points after 12 rounds.
