Garan Croft fights at light-middleweight, whilst his brother fights in the welterweight division. The brothers took up boxing together at Cardigan ABC. The Welsh-speaking brothers were featured in an S4C television documentary prior to the Commonwealth Games 2022, for which they were both selected to represent Wales.[4] Although they are sparring partners, they fight at different weights partly because their mother insists that they do not fight against one another in a serious bout.[3] On the same weekend that Garan was awarded a bronze medal at the Commonwealth Games 2022, his brother Ioan won a gold medal.[5]
