Profile

The story

Baptiste was born in Luton and made his professional debut at the age of 33. Sources differ on his current place of residence: rtfight names Northampton, while the Northampton Chronicle describes him as being from Desborough. This discrepancy could not be resolved. In his debut, he convincingly defeated Lithuanian boxer Genady Krajevski on points, 40-35 over four rounds, and scored a knockdown. Baptiste was trained by James Conway at Team Shoe-Box in Northampton. At the time of his debut, Conway said that the team wanted to guide him quickly toward a title opportunity at super middleweight or middleweight. According to an announcement from the boxing school shared via Instagram, Baptiste later became the holder of the Midlands Area super middleweight title. The exact date of that title victory could not be publicly confirmed. Sources also differ on his professional win-loss record. Because those tallies are linked to different reference dates, no temporary record is included as fixed profile information.

His regional title marks a clear milestone in a career that was built relatively quickly from Team Shoe-Box in Northampton toward championship level. A broader national legacy still needs to be further established.
