MICKY WARD, the former world champion whose life was portrayed in the Oscar winning movie “The Fighter” has been brought in by Corkman Gary Hyde to train his light welterweight sensation, Levan “The Wolf” Ghvamichava.

Ghvamichava who hails from Georgia and now lives in Belfast won six senior titles as an amateur in his native country and is a former European silver medallist.

In 2011, Ghvamichava won all six of his pro fights and he is already fighting in scheduled eight-round bouts. His last fight was in Scotland in October when he knocked out the former European and Italian champion, Guiuseppe Lauria (51-8, 32 KO’s) in the second round.
