Career
A southpaw,[2] Makin won the under 71 kg title at the England Boxing Elite Championships in 2023[3] and 2024.[4]
Having been a member of the GB Boxing academy group, he was elevated onto the Podium Squad shortly before being chosen to represent England in the 75 kg division at the 2025 World Boxing Championships in his hometown of Liverpool.[5][6]
In his opening bout at the event, he defeated Croatia's Petar Krešimir Knežević via unanimous decision.[7][8] Makin then beat Michal Jarlinski from Poland by 3:2 split decision in the round-of-16[9][10] and Joshua Ofori of Canada 4:1 in the quarter-finals.[11][12] He lost to Bulgaria's reigning European champion, Rami Kiwan, via unanimous decision in the semi-finals and was therefore awarded a bronze medal.[13][14][15]
