Joshua Frankham has registered a successful pro debut against a veteran gatekeeper in Kevin McCauley tonight.

After going all four rounds, Joshua Frankham has beaten his rival on the judges’ scorecards. However, it was not a cut-out easy work for the Briton. Being Tyson Fury’s cousin, Frankham had a lot of eyeballs on him tonight.

Well, that’s not the only reason for all the attention he is receiving. Before turning into a pro, Frankham had an impressive run at the amateur level. Thus, he was expected to leave a similar impact on his professional debut. While he did not disappoint his fans, there’s much more to note from his first contest.

Joshua Frankham’s performance will definitely make Tyson Fury proud

In his maiden fight, Joshua Frankham took on Kevin McCauley, who has triple-digit losses on his resume.

McCauley is in a win-drought for the last three years, showcasing a professional record of 15 wins, 207 losses, and 12 draws. That said, he is clearly not an in-ring terror for the professionals. However, considering his vast experience, Frankham had to stay alert throughout the fight.
