Preparation has been going well and we’re looking for another win and then on to bigger things, which will be the British or the Commonwealth, that’s what we are looking for at the minute. I promise before this year ends you’ll be looking at the British or Commonwealth Champion, without doubt. I want to give a big shout out to all my fans and sponsors, Addison Lee, Glenn Insurance. I want the ‘Eagle’ crowd to come out in force, because the fight’s going to be a great fight. Not just my fight, but they’ll be other great fights at ‘Betfair London’s Finest’ and it’s gonna be a great night of action. TRAD TKO’s Danny Connor defends his Southern Area against Chris Evangelou, my team mate and another of the TRAD TKO crew, Wadi Camacho takes on China White for the English Cruiserweight title, Darren Barker and Lee Purdy also fighting for titles. ‘Eagle’, ‘Eagle’, ‘Eagle’ oh and I’m gonna be coming in to my track, Erick The Eagle, yep that’s what I am going to be entering the ring with.” Tickets, priced £40, £60 and £80, for the Matchroom Sport promoted ‘Betfair London’s Finest at Wembley Arena on Saturday 9th March, are on sale now at www.tkoboxoffice.com or direct from Erick Ochieng at the TRAD TKO Boxing Gym, Gillian House, Stephenson Street, Canning Town, London E16 4SA.
