A PUGILISTIC

VAPOUROUND AND LIK SPONSOR ONE OF
BRITISH BOXING’S RISING STARS BY LEO FORFAR
powered by
Burton-born super heavyweight Frazer Clarke has been turning
heads – voluntarily or otherwise – since he started boxing at
the age of 11. Now 24, with numerous championships under his
belt – and more belts to come – he’s got his eyes on Olympic
gold. As he fights his way through the world’s best amateur super
heavyweights enroute to Tokyo, Frazer will be bearing some very
special brand logos.
Vapouround and Lik Juice have become heavy hitters in their own
corners of the vaping industry and are proud to be his sponsor.
Helping others quit their worst habits and being an example of
what one can achieve with a healthy lifestyle is Frazer’s mission.
And like so many who achieve this, it didn’t start off easily for him.

“I started boxing because I was at that age where I was going
to try everything and shy away from nothing. I did football, I did
rugby, I wanted to find my sport, somewhere I’d belong. I boxed
because I wanted to lose weight and toughen up. I had a knack
for it and the rest is history. I was a big kid – a heavyweight (91
kilograms) by age 13. I can still remember every detail of my first
fight. It was both the scariest and most rewarding moment of my
life up until that point – it absolutely gripped me, and the sport of
boxing hasn’t let go since.”
Even before he became such a respected name in British boxing,
Frazer’s love for the sport kept him close to the spotlights. He
spent some time working as a security guard at televised boxing
matches whist racking up his own wins.
