Warrington’s Rising Star: Luke Turner

Watch out:  Warrington has another famous Luke!

Luke Turner is a 20-year-old middleweight boxer from Warrington who is set to make his professional debut later in 2025 after a highly successful amateur career.

Luke’s amateur record includes over 50 bouts and three national titles, as well as representing England internationally.

He trains at Everton Red Triangle ABC under coaches Paul Stevenson and Anthony Humphries, and has signed with a promoter connected to major boxing TV networks, signalling significant backing as he turns pro.

At 5’10” and competing at 160 lbs, Luke is known for being clean-living, highly fit, and capable of both pressuring opponents and boxing smart when needed.

Luke was recently signed by Frank Warren and Queensberry Promotions – and has now left a full-time street lighting job to focus entirely on boxing.

His new professional chapter is notably supported by Rope and Sling Specialists Ltd, who gifted him pro gloves through his father’s workplace.

His professional debut is expected around August or September 2025 and he is currently seeking additional sponsorship from local businesses.
