It’s Denny in spite of everything who goes in because the reigning European middleweight champion and he’s coming off a run of spectacular upset wins himself.

“When I got the opportunity to fight him I couldn’t say yes quick enough. I was buzzing, this is my time now and I’m going to show everyone what I’m about,” Denny advised Sky Sports activities.

“I need to present individuals why I am the champion and to point out why I need to transfer on to world stage.

“I’m grateful for the opportunity but I got it on merit, for beating the people that I’ve beat and I know that and that’s what gives me my confidence.”

After overcoming good fighters like Bradley Rea and Brad Pauls, who’s now the British champion, Denny thrilled his dwelling followers in Wolverhampton when he defeated Matteo Signani to win the European title.

“I put that much pressure on myself to win because I hate losing. It’s not so much about the occasion,” he mentioned. “I hate losing, I’m the one who has to deal with that afterwards.

“I am refusing to let that occur once more.”

His choice to give up plumbing to pursue prizefighting full-time has been vindicated. “I’ve had sufficient bogs and loos, that is sufficient for me,” he smiled.

“I do know the place I stand. I do know I wasn’t first decide for this battle. However I do not care both.
