Mark Tibbs identified Alen Babic as Johnny Fisher’s next opponent after watching him spar

Heavyweights tend to be given more time and leeway than fighters in any other weight division. A big right hand can cover up a multitude of sins and a devastating finish will ensure that fans tune in to watch a fighter the next time they lace up the gloves regardless of what preceded it.

Eddie Hearn believes that 25-year-old heavyweight Johnny Fisher, 11-0 (10 KOs), is on target to challenge for the British title if he beats Alen Babic on July 6 at the Copper Box Arena in Hacney Wick, London.

Alen Babic believes he will be the underdog against 25-year-old Johnny Fisher when they collide on July 6 at London’s Copper Box Arena in a heavyweight 10-rounder. The declaration – drawn largely from the fact that huge ticket-seller Fisher will enjoy the support from the crowd – was merely lip service at today’s press conference, however.


Johnny Fisher, 11-0 (10 KOs), will return to action against Alen Babic, 12-1 (11 KOs) on July 6th. The heavyweights will be the main attraction of a DAZN NextGen show at the Copperbox Arena in London.

Ben Whittaker will stay true to a vow to remain far more active in 2024. The flamboyant light heavyweight prospect is confirmed to return to the ring on March 31, in supporting capacity to the already announced Fabio Wardley-Frazer Clarke British heavyweight title fight. An opponent was not yet confirmed for West Bromwich's Whittaker, whose placement on the show comes on the heels of his fifth-round knockout of Khalid Graidia earlier this month.

Alen ‘The Savage’ Babic takes on Steve Robinson and rising super middleweight star Callum Simpson is back in action on the undercard of the ‘Bad Blood’ showdown between unbeaten heavyweight rivals Fabio Wardley and Frazer Clarke on Sunday, March 31st at The O2 in London, live on Sky Sports in the UK and Ireland and Peacock in the USA.

Poland - On Saturday night, BOXXER presented a card in association with Knockout Promotions, and the local crowd went crazy in the main event when hometown hero Lukasz Rozanski (15-0, 14 KO’s) made short work of Croatian wildman Alen ‘The Savage’ Babic (11-1, 10 KO’s) to claim the vacant WBC World Bridgerweight championship in front of a partisan crowd in the sold-out G2A Arena.
