He challenged for the Commonwealth bantamweight title in 2012; the Commonwealth super bantamweight title in 2016; the European bantamweight title in 2018; and the British super bantamweight title three times between 2014 and 2019.From Barnsley, Wale won a NABC schoolboy title and represented England as an amateur, and attended the National Boxing Academy at East Durham and Houghall Community College in Peterlee, where he also studied hairdressing.He made his professional debut in October 2006 with a first-round stoppage if Neil Read. In his fifth fight, in December 2007, he stopped Mo Khaled in the fourth round to take the vacant BBBofC Central Area bantamweight title. He won his next two fights but suffered a first defeat in September 2008 when he was forced to retire in the corner due to severe damage to the right eye. In September 2009 he faced Matthew Marsh at the York Hall, Bethnal Green, in what should have been a fight for the vacant English super bantamweight title, but Marsh failed to make the weight and despite beating Wale on points, the title remained vacant.In 2010 Wale entered the Prizefighter tournament, beating Esham Pickering in the first round, yet losing to Willie Casey in the semi finals. A year later he challenged for Craig Lyon's English bantamweight title; A clash of heads stopped the fight in the third round, with the fight declared a draw.In May 2012 he challenged Kid Galahad for the WBC International super bantamweight title, Wale again forced to retire in the 9th round due to severe eye damage. Six months later he faced Stuart Hall for the vacant Commonwealth bantamweight title, losing by a wide points margin.
