Williams And Conquest Face To Face On The Fight Show This Thursday

PhilBoxing.com


This Thursday evening British Cruiserweight Champion Leon ?Solid? Williams and Tony ?Conqueror? Conquest, who will be challenging him for his crown at York Hall in London on the 13th January, will be taking a little time out from their big fight preparations to be studio guests on The Fight Show, presented by Dom McGuinness, on Sports Tonight (Freeview HD Channel 112 and available worldwide on-line at www.sportstonightlive.com) from 5.30pm (GMT)

Leon, Tony and Dom will be discussing all the latest boxing news, upcoming fights and of course the BIG ONE, the most defining British Cruiserweight battle in recent history, when the man himself, Leon Williams, defends his coveted Lonsdale belt against Tony Conquest in what can be best described as the ?Battle of Britain?.

Between them Leon and Tony have breathed life into the often overlooked division, with their all action, yet highly contrasting, styles - Leon being a big punching close quarters battler, right out of the ?Iron? Mike Tyson mould, whilst Tony?s quick handed slick boxing style is more akin to that of two time Cruiserweight Champion of the World Steve ?USS? Cunningham - ensures a true Battle Royale come the 13th January.

There?s much more to this fight though, which has caused both Leon and Tony a bit of a dilemma, as after their first fight, back in their Amateur days, the pair became close friends and have remained so until this day.

On Thursday you can be sure that one of the topics being discussed is how they intend to go about separating their friendship from the serious business of big time Championship boxing.

The Fight Show, hosted by Dom McGuinness and featuring British Cruiserweight Champion Leon ?Solid? Williams and title challenger Tony ?Conqueror? Conquest, is broadcast live on Sports Tonight (Freeview HD Channel 112 and available worldwide on-line at www.sportstonightlive.com) from 5.30pm (GMT).

Leon ?Solid? Williams Versus Tony ?Conqueror? Conquest for the British Cruiserweight title headlines Francis and George Warren?s Queensberry Promotions first event of the New Year, which takes place at York Hall, Bethnal Green, London, on Friday 13th January 2012 and broadcast live on BoxNation (Sky platform Channel 456 & Virgin 546)

Tickets, priced ?40 (Standard Seated) and ?60 (Ringside) for Williams vs. Conquest are available now on-line at www.tkoboxoffice.com. Tickets are also available direct from the TRAD TKO Boxing Gym, Gillian House, Stephenson Street, Canning Town, London E16 4SA.
