Sam Smith is the younger sibling of Wes Smith, made his own pro debut at the Guildhall in Plymouth in 2016, but saw his career cut short by injury in 2019, due to a road accident.
Both are graduates of Launceston Boxing Club, where Sam's amateur record saw 14 victories from 17 contests, winning an England Development national title at under 20 bouts.
The pro journey will see his amateur coach Des Charnock continue in his corner, with super middleweight the preferred division initially.
Sam is now making his own paid debut when he becomes part of the BCB Promotions show Rumble on the Riviera on Friday, September 2.
The fighting farmer leads a quiet life away from the sport, based on the moorland of Bodmin Moor, but comes from good stock where boxing is concerned.
