Jez Wilson (born 22 June 1979) is a middleweight boxer from Wolverhampton but has been based in Sheffield for his entire career.
Wilson's interest in pugilism started as a teenager but he was a relative late-comer to professional boxing, turning pro at 27.[1]
He made his debut at the Grosvenor Hotel in Sheffield in April 2007 and stopped Peter Cannon in round five. Since then, he has suffered a series of injuries and has also seen his career slowed down by multiple pull-outs by opponents. Being a bit more active in 2012/13 has seen him pick up the central area middleweight title and the British masters middleweight title, moving towards a tilt at the English or British title later in 2013. Wilson is managed and trained by Glyn Rhodes and is under contract to Ricky Hatton's Hatton Promotions.
