Proudly Presents
MITCHELL BALKER VS. HARI MILES
THIS IS HARD KNOCKS
Friday 7th October @ York Hall

London boxing fans will get the chance to see their newest all conquering hero, Plaistow Cruiserweight sensation Mitchell Balker, in action right on their doorstep, as Spencer Fearon has signed him up to face Welsh hardman Hari Miles at his upcoming Hard knocks Boxing Promotions ?This Is Hard Knocks? event at the York Hall in Bethnal Green on Friday, 7th October.

West Ham fanatic Balker shot up the rankings, to #4 in Britain and #83 in the World, after hammering then World #45 ranked Richard Turba in Blackpool last month.

It was this sensational win that prompted Spencer Fearon to pick up the phone and call Balker?s manager, Johnny Eames, to get him on the Premier Sports (Sky channel 433) televised show.

Earlier today Spencer explained his reasons for asking Balker to fight on his flagship TV show, ?Why because Mitchell epitomizes what Hard Knocks is all about.

I mean look at that guy, Mitchell, he took up the challenge and got a fantastic win over Richard Turba. Nobody, but nobody, wanted to fight Richard Turba, but he fights him and gets a great win.

Now hear what I?m saying, no padded records, he wins fights, lost a fight by stoppage, comes back and beats a guy who?s a fearful puncher, who?s a demon kind of guy that nobody wants to fight, but he does and beats him.

That?s why Mitchell has to be on the next Hard Knocks show on October 7th.?

Balker, who last year relocated from Amsterdam to Plaistow so that he could be as close as possible to his beloved Upton Park and Johnny Eames? TRAD TKO Boxing Gym in Canning Town, then added, ?I?m really proud that Spencer Fearon wants me to fight on his big show.

I always said I will fight anyone, I came to England to fight, so when they ask me to fight Richard Turba I said yes, I did and I won.

Now Spencer wants me to fight Hari Miles, I said yes, please I want the fight. I?m really looking forward to fighting Hari Miles on October 7th, I?m ready for it.

Training is going really well, I get such good sparring at the TRAD TKO and perfect training from Barry (Smith) and Johnny (Eames), perfect preparations.

I?m really looking forward to the fight, I?m looking forward to fighting Hari Miles especially as it will be right in my own back garden as such. York Hall is so close to here.

When I moved to London I wanted to live near to Upton Park and the TRAD TKO Gym. It?s good for me here as Johnny (Eames), Kevin (Mitchell) and lots of the fighters at the gym are West Ham fans.

When I was in Holland I always watched West Ham matches when I could, I always enjoyed watching them. I?m very proud to live close to the ground, now I get to watch them at Upton Park

I?m very proud to live here and fight in the East End of London, it?s now my home, I?m very proud have the chance to fight in front of East End fans.?

Hard Knocks Boxing Promotions ?This Is Hard Knocks? event, which will be headlined by Choi Tseveenp?rev, takes place at York Hall, Bethnal Green, on Friday 7th October 2011 and broadcast live on Premier Sports (Sky channel 433).
