Sol Gilbert hopes to clinch the vacant British middleweight title tonight.

The Brighton-based fighter is already the European Cup holder and is aiming to complete a hat-trick of titles within the year.

Northern Ireland's David Patterson stands between Gilbert and the successful second stage of his masterplan tonight in Chippenham.

Patterson, the Irish Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and All Ireland MMA champion, has a 100 per cent record.

Gilbert, who has been sparring with former British heavyweight boxing champion Scott Welch, said: "He has had 17 fights and 17 wins. That's the sort of record I like. I want to end that right now."
