Back in April of this year, Isle of Man professional boxer, Jade Burden was due to take part in her first ever title fight in the UK.

However, at short notice, the event itself was cancelled, leaving the Island competitor in a tough place and considering her future in the sport.

But since then, things have changed - the showdown has since been rescheduled to Saturday, 13 June and will see Burden face Katie Smith for the Commonwealth Silver Super Featherweight title in Bolton.

With the fire inside rekindled, we've been catching up with Jade ahead of this weekend's fight to find out what it would mean to hear to bring a belt back to the Isle of Man, and also how she's coped with the challenges of the last few months since the original date was called off
