5x expanded by Kosack (talk). Self-nominated at 12:05, 10 May 2021 (UTC).[reply]

Y Article has been 5x expanded according to DYKcheck tool, nominated in time (5x expansion started 7 May, nominated 10 May), and article is within policy. Earwig Copyvio does say 28.1% chance of copyvio, but that is a false positive- it's only picking up names of events
Y Hook is short enough, interesting, in the article, and well cited
N QPQ not yet done
The article is fine but Kosack please provide a QPQ for this nomination. Will come back to pass nomination once QPQ is done. Joseph2302 (talk) 16:19, 12 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Joseph2302: I've added in my QPQ for this now. Kosack (talk) 06:18, 14 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for doing QPQ:
Y QPQ done
Good to go now. Joseph2302 (talk) 07:54, 14 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Interestingly we have an article on Professional boxing which could be linked. -Done
although the lightweight category lacks its own article, we do have Boxing at the 2002 Commonwealth Games as a more specific link than just the games themselves.-Done
"to him retiring in " -> "to his retirement in".-Done
Could link some of these weight categories...-Done
"first fence against" de-fence?-Done
"stoppage defeat" what is that, a TKO? Link at least.
Yes, added the link. Kosack (talk) 10:52, 26 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Stance is mentioned in the infobox but nowhere else and not referenced.-Done
"After six weeks, his coach convinced him to take up the sport full-time" at the age of nine?? -Reworded
Nothing really between him being nine (~1988) and the Commonwealths (2002)?
I've only found one or two mentions of youth tiles but the source doesn't seem particularly reliable. He appears to have been a late bloomer. Kosack (talk) 10:52, 26 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
"focus on his boxing career..." but he became a scaffolder? Is scaffold a universal word, perhaps needs link? -Reworded
Could link the Wales squad bit to Wales at the 2002 Commonwealth Games.-Done
"in his semi-final bout" no need for bout.-Done
"incase" two words.-Done
Referee (boxing) has an article.-Done
""professional debut in March"" do we know what weight class?-Done
Boxing training has a link.-Done
"18-months" no hyphen.-Done
Could link winning streak-Done
"despite separating from trainer" any clues why?
No explanation unfortunately, probably kept behind closed doors. Kosack (talk) 10:52, 26 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
"the Prizefighter series at" any more info on this?-Done
"opening his own gym " what happened to his first gym?
I can't seem to find any further info on the gym, but I'd assume it was discontinued if he went on to setup a second one. Kosack (talk) 18:00, 28 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
what happened after Horvatic?
Expanded slightly, he's been pretty quiet since giving up fighting. Kosack (talk) 18:00, 28 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
"Prizefighter quarter-final" text in table looks larger. I don't see why you need the smaller font really, the table only occupies 2/3 of my width.

That's all I have, so it's on hold for now. The Rambling Man (Stay alert! Control the virus! Save lives!!!!) 09:40, 26 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@The Rambling Man: Thanks for the review, I've responded as best as I can on all points. Let me know what you think. Kosack (talk) 18:00, 28 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
