"I’m back and ready to rumble.

"I can confirm the rumours that I am fighting on the Calzaghe / Hopkins undercard. It is a great show to be on and I’m glad for the opportunity to get back out there. Big up Frank Warren.

"I will be working with Frank Warren and this deal will lead to a heavyweight title, provided that I do what I need to do in the ring. 

"Having not fought since losing to Sprott and overcoming a serious car crash and operation, I’m itching to get back in the ring and climb the mountain once more. Sitting on the sidelines has been tough as I’ve trained throughout most of my time off and things just haven’t worked out. Losing my younger brother in January was also difficult, but life is life and we come and go; tomorrow is not promised to any of us. So think wisely my friends and be all you can be. Dare to dream and never give in, no matter what. God will guide you, when the way ahead is dark. I have faith.  

"I’m still optimistic about my future and despite the tough road ahead, I’m ready, willing and able to bounce back and achieve my goals. People can choose how they wish to be defined and I’m not defined by anyone’s image but my own. I still believe I can win a world title and I will find a way to reach the mountain top.

"Having lived in Vegas for the last 4 years, I’ve made many friends, so the poster on this site is circling around Vegas. Local crew see you there. The British fans that are travelling; get there in time to see the A Force on the undercard! I suspect that my fight will get some exposure on UK television.

"Not sure of the opponent yet, but having been out for over a year and getting this on short notice, it will be low key. But I still have to do a job on him and I will take it from there.

"Training hard and still believing."

A-Force
