Carl Fail discusses alliance with twin Ben
PhilBoxing.com Fri, 05 Mar 2021

Carl Fail has lifted the lid on his brotherly bond with his twin Ben - ahead of Carl's highly-anticipated professional debut on the action-packed March 12th #MTKFightNight.
Fail enters the paid ranks for the first time on next Friday's huge event at the University of Bolton Stadium, live in the US on ESPN+ in association with Top Rank, and worldwide on IFL TV.
He follows in the footsteps of his brother Ben who was victorious his debut back in September, and Carl is hoping to be just as successful.
Fail said: "I'm very excited for my debut. I have given my life to this sport since I was 11-years-old. It's been a hard transition from amateur to professional, but I'm enjoying the journey and learning in the gym every day.
"Me and my brother Ben walked into the boxing gym together and have been side by side ever since. Team GB was a good learning experience for me but I'm happy to be back with my twin.
"I was very proud of Ben when he made his debut, nobody sees what he has sacrificed for this sport and nobody deserves it more. Now it's my turn and I'm hoping to make my mark in the super-welterweight division."
