BRITAIN’S first qualified solicitor turned boxer is already a big favourite before even throwing a punch professionally.
And it is all down to his utterly brilliant nickname.
Oscar McCracken obtained a First Class LLB Law with Honours degree from the University of Worcester back in 2022.
Two years later he then completed the Legal Practice Course (LPC) and obtained an LLM in Law and Business from the University of Law in Birmingham.
According to his LinkedIn bio, the star now has “vast experience in Dispute Resolution, Real Estate and construction law” and has also worked in the Middle East.
As well as his knowledge of law, Mccracken is also a fluent speaker in Spanish.

However, his talents do not end there – as his bio explained: “I have a passion for boxing as my family run a professional boxing gym.”
While he has been training the mind in law and order he has also been honing his physical attributes inside the ring.
And after a number of amateur bouts, he is now preparing to embark on his career as a professional boxer.
McCracken will be in action on May 25 at an event in the Holiday Inn at Birmingham Airport.

“Move over Steve ‘Young brother of Stephane’ Jamoye, there’s a new main event.”
