Another win followed, and Wright took on Lenny Daws for the vacant British title on May 12th 2006 at York Hall in Bethnal Green. The contest ended with disappointment, with Wright losing his second defeat in his career, losing in 12 rounds. In the aftermath, he was able to redeem himself at the end of his fight on the 4th of November, 2006, he won the vacant English belt. He beat Gary Reid to become a two-time English champion.
Wright followed up the Reid win with a victory over American Jonathon Nelson as part of the UK vs USA Contender challenge at the Metro Arena in Newcastle and then fought former British champion Lenny Daws for his English belt, this time keeping hold of the belt by scoring a draw. On 8 February 2008 he challenged Ajose Olusegun for the Commonwealth belt only to lose for the third time in his career. A further defeat followed in his very next fight, travelling to Limerick and losing to Paul McCloskey over 10 rounds.
On 5 December 2009 Wright returned to action and bounced back from the defeat to Olusegan with his biggest win to date, beating former WBO super- featherweight champion Alex Arthur in an 8-round points decision. The fight, on the undercard of Amir Khan’s WBA world title defence against Dmitriy Salita was a step up for Wright who rose to the challenge to cause a major upset and have Arthur questioning his future in the sport. On 23 July 2010 Wright claimed the English title, for the third time beating Dean Harrison over 10 rounds and despite being given a count in the 7th round after touching down. Wright had stated before the fight that should he win the contest with Harrison, another shot at the British title would be his main aim, a title which at the time was held by old rival Lenny Daws. On 12 February 2011 Wright beat the undefeated Jamie Speight in a six-round contest at the Olympia in Liverpool, winning by stoppage in the 5th round. On 28 May 2011 he defeated Nicki Smedley over 10 rounds in Hillsborough Leisure Centre, Sheffield to defend his English title.
The battle to defend to claim the English belt on the 11th of March 2005 was held at the Doncaster Dome and saw the unbeaten Dean Hickman (12-0) in the opposite corner. Wright took the win by knocking out the opponent in the 7th and thus won his first professional title. A successful defense was fought with a win against Alan Bosworth on 27 May 2005. This was followed with a rematch victory over Scotsman Kevin McIntyre on 5 November 2005, putting him out during the opening round.
