Hide Ad"It's been 18 months since I last boxed, since then there has been quite a few big changes in my life, so I am just glad to be back and get the cobwebs off more than anything" he said after out-pointing Anwar Alfadli.
Din moved to Dubai after being offered a job at a new boxing gym there.
He combines his new lifestyle with his a ring-career now managed in Sheffield by retired professional Adam Etches.
"I have recently signed a contract with Adam, it is good to be managed by a fighter, he knows what we go through as fighters," said the 25-year-old.

Hide Ad"I want to get another fight or two out of the way, a six-rounder and eight-rounder, then I need to be cracking on. I am not in this game to be fighting four-rounders.
Friday's contest at the Double Tree by Hilton in Norton, against Alfadli, almost back-fired.
Both men were given a referee's count in an eventful third round.
"It was a good shot, I just fell asleep in there" admitted Din, (10-1-0) who wants a couple more fights before getting back on the title trail.
"I have got that bit of rhythm going back again."
