LONDON’S Copperbox Arena in London this weekend, on July 6, is where Romford’s young, charismatic and explosive heavyweight prospect, Johnny Fisher, will face by far the most difficult test of his career so far in the personage of Alen Babic.

Babic, from Croatia, has earned a deserved reputation for violence in and out of the ring. Carrying the mean countenance of a stereotypical Bond villain, his popularity with purists of the game has been earned not via the application of a slick boxing skillset but by the unbridled deployment of mass artillery.

In other words he doesn’t play, Alen Babic. He comes to seek and destroy. Johnny Fisher does likewise, which is why this particular fight has a distinct “don’t blink or you’ll miss it” flavour to it.
