I know Chris very well...he started late in boxing so he had to catch up quite quickly,which he did. He was stable partners with michael grant before michael turned pro. And as for the others they turned pro just before chris had the opportunity to box them.
Also his international tournaments stopped him from fighting domestically for the later part of his amateur career.
I give much credit to chris, as he never once boxed anyone with less experience than him,always entered tournaments where he was always the least experienced and most of the time won them.

can't wait to see him fight as a pro.. excellent boxing style.

Very impressed with that interview

Same, very mature and very level headed.

I actually miss joe calzaghe. I know a lot of people slate and berate him but I miss the buzz from when he was boxing.

No-one else british delivers that buzz right now...such a good fighter...yes he had his off nights but he could beat anyone when he was on song.

Calzaghe did well to get him, looks a talent. That's what he needs to do, get a stable of hot prospects, and a few are bound to come good. Seems like he's serious about this promoting lark.

He had his 1st fight at 18..no junior experience so had his work cut out. I think he was an international for cyprus for the last 2 years,i saw him fight in cyprus last year..3 fights in 3 days and all his opponents were fresh.

Hes coming back to london on the weekend,he's training at edmonton eagles boxing club on saturday afternoon..cant wait to see him.

saw him at Alley Palley on friday night. looked good but was in with a bullshit opponent.

he had as many fans show up as Barker so if he keeps selling tickets like that he will get opportunities.

Looks a very interesting fighter. Hopefully after a few good learning fights he can get in the domestic mix.
