Valerijs Mikalauskas comes to London next Saturday to face Essex’s Lee Markham in a mouth watering clash. “The Hammer” promises UK fans a treat and says Markham will go the way of all his other 4 opponents and be despatched in the first round.
Mikaulauskas’s four opponents have lasted a total of 160 seconds and promises Markham will not go past 90 seconds. “I am coming to the UK to look for a fight with Eubank jr, Groves or Anderson. I will knock Markham out. I have won every fight amateur and pro by knockout and have never lost. I will hit Markham on the chin and put him to sleep.
One may wonder why Markham is risking a fight against such a hard puncher. “I have recently signed with Steve Goodwin and feel rejuvenated. We have sat down and discussed our strategy and I wanted a real test for all fans coming to the venue and watching on TV (Primetime 498). He cant hit what he cannot see and I promise to give him some of his own medicine. The fight wont go the distance and but it will be me that is victorious.”
