His gold medal haul is playing havoc with his DIY skills, but Luke Campbell is relishing the role of being a nailed-on favourite for London 2012 as he heads into this week's European Championships.
Since his return from a serious hand injury in the middle of last year, Campbell has claimed seven consecutive international tournament victories - and has not lost an international fight since the 2009 World Championships.
Campbell said: "I've had to have two extra shelves put up and I don't think they'll be able to take the weight soon. I had to get my brother-in-law to do it as I'm absolutely terrible at DIY."
Campbell came from nowhere to become the first English fighter in 47 years to claim a continental crown in Liverpool in 2008 and he will head to Ankara confident of repeating that famous win.
It marks a remarkable turn-around in fortunes for Campbell, whose injury ruled him out of defending his crown last year at the same time as rival Iain Weaver began staking his own impressive claim to the 54kg slot.
But while Weaver earned the high-profile ticket to the Commonwealth Games, Campbell went to the Ukraine and won the tough Kharkov tournament. He then underlined his return by hammering Weaver in the GB Championships at the end of the year.
"I was out for 10 months and because of my hand I couldn't even spar properly," said Campbell.
"Iain was doing very well and it put a lot of pressure on me, knowing there were others out there who were being successful.
"There were some low points, but I never lost the belief. I'm not a quitter. I want to get to the Olympics because that dream and desire has been with me such a long time. I'm not going to let something as simple as that get in my way."
Campbell is one of a 10-strong England line-up at the championships - generally regarded as one of the world's toughest - which start on Friday. Nine Irish, six Welsh and four Scottish boxers are also competing.
For those with realistic hopes of earning a Great Britain slot for 2012, it will be a crucial chance to make their mark ahead of the world championships, which double as the first Olympic qualifiers, in Baku in September.
"It's one of the hardest tournaments in the world but I've proved I've got what it takes. The kid I beat in the 2008 [Detelin Dalakliev] went on to win the world championships when I was injured, so that was a big confidence boost.
"I'm an all-round better fighter now than I was when I won the Europeans. I'm two kilos heavier and that has made a big difference to me.
"I go into every competition aiming to win it, but of course the world championships are my 100% goal this year. That's the tournament that is going to get me closer to realising my ultimate goal."
There is every sign Campbell will be calling his brother-in-law back in for some overtime when he returns from Turkey.
"It's a good job," he added. "If I'd put the shelves up, they would definitely have fallen down by now."
