YOUNG Aimie Bell is heading a trio of Thai boxers from Burnley and Pendle who look set to become stars of the sport.
Aimie, 12, from Burnley, has won all of her three fights so far, her most recent triumph coming at Middleton in a North-West junior 37kg fight.
Nelson's Luke Turner, 8, drew his fight in the same tournament, and Thomas Jordan, 12, of Colne, won his first ever fight.
The youngsters are coached by Jimmy Clayton at the Muay Thai centre in Blackburn.
