    Sam Eggington packs in 9-5 house cleaning job after SIX DAYS to make boxing U-turn for Lee Cutler fight

    SAM EGGINGTON threw in the towel on his 9-5 job cleaning houses after just SIX DAYS – so he could make a tidy boxing return.Eggington – who has treated fans to some of Britain’s bravest bouts – left his career in doubt after defeat to Abass Baraou in March 2023.Sam Eggington quit his house cleaning job to return to boxingCredit: @eggington_samBut he returned with a comeback victory against Alan Sebastian Velazquez in November to get back to winning ways. It also brought an end to Eggington’s brief, week-long job clearing out houses with his brother. Eggington, 31, told Ring Magazine: “I went and worked with my brother for a bit. It was alright, it is what it is. “There was nothing happening at the time so I got a job with my brother. We were cleaning out houses for the council, I didn’t mind it at all.READ MORE IN BOXING”But to be fair pal, I know people keep saying ‘Sam went and lived a normal life’ but I was there from probably Tuesday one week to the Wednesday after. “I barely had a full-time job. I went for the interview, I got the job but I was there for six days max. The job was good but I was just cleaning out houses.” Eggington has been in brutal bouts and come up controversially short before – like his Fight of The Year with Ted Cheeseman in 2020.He lost another tight points decision in Telford against Baraou for the 154lb European title – losing hope in the sport in the process.

Cutler beat Stephen McKenna in a breakout performance in December – not that Eggington saw it though. He said: “I didn’t watch it, but as long as I do what I do, I’m 100 percent confident it’ll be a good night. “I’m not going to change my style for anyone. You go and watch the best Sam Eggington, that’s what people can expect on the night, I’m not changing a single thing for him.Read More on The Sun”I always make sure in my fights that I don’t make myself look like a fool.
