Kingston's Danny is gonna knock Craig out
12:00pm Saturday 22nd September 2012 in Sport
Kingston’s Danny Parsons is confident of claiming his first boxing title at Epsom Downs Racecourse tonight.
The former Battersea ABC amateur takes on Dagenham’s Craig Hardy for the vacant Queensbury Boxing League Southern Area title after impressing promoters earlier in the year during a sparring
session.
And after being ringside back in June to see Hardy in action, Parsons has no fear of failure.
“I’ve seen what he brings to the table, and there is no doubt in my mind that it will be me lifting that belt,” said the 18-year-old, left.
“Hardy looks like a good stand-up boxer who throws lots of straight shots and can take a punch, but he’s not a power puncher. I’m confident I can take him out inside the distance.”
Parsons’ title showdown will be screened on satellite channel British Eurosport in October and is the biggest fight of his boxing career.
