Massive fight for me 5th sept.
Taking on former pro and a lad who's had 300 fights called James Higgy.
Got offered a shit fight but refused it because he was just a kebab shop brawler.
Fight is at 13 stone and he's going to be 12 stone 6. He's one of the best lads on the semi pro circuit ive heard so I'm training very hard.
Re: Massive fight for me 5th sept.
That is a tough fight I would have taken on the kebab shop brawler.
Are you still in shape and been training?
Re: Massive fight for me 5th sept.
He's not a big puncher mate. What would I learn fighting a kebab shop brawler? I want to progress master having a bust up with a wilder swinger won't teach me nothing. This is a fantastic opportunity for me. I can't wait for it. Yes still training all of the time and in shape, never out of the gym.
Re: Massive fight for me 5th sept.
I still think you have limited experience and need to refine your boxing skills and handle rough tough fighters.
Chasing skilled fighters is another level up and more complex. Cutting the ring, setting up traps and executing them is another dimension.
Re: Massive fight for me 5th sept.
Good luck man, you know what you're doing in there and I'm sure it'll be a good scrap.

Kebab shop brawler :)
Good luck mate

This fella has fought Scott Dixon (decent British level fighter - back in the day - that chinned out Jamie Moore) and Michael Gomez. Good luck.

What are you doing? That is too good quality. Get back down a level. How do you expect me to build up and manufacture you and sell you to Warren or Hennesey?

I know how good he is and I know he's far more experienced than me. But why not give it 110% and see what happens? I'll be fighting for years master this is a tough one but I want to know want the challenge. He also got stopped in his last fight too in Malta and was thinking about retiring...I think this is the best possible time to fight him?
I'd take this fight over the kebab shop brawler anyday of the week. I don't tend to do well against them anyway they bring me down to their level.
I've been mixing it with good level lads recently so why not carry on this run?
Hahaha also check out this sparring picture from tonight with a 6 foot 7 , 18 stone 8 lad. He wasn't close to knocking me out, so I'm not too worried about Higgys power. He's an excellent boxer though and I am so excited for the challenge

Maybe sell him to Kellie Maloney instead?
