Former fighter turned boxing promoter Spencer Fearon takes iFilm London for a tour of his Hard Knocks boxing gym in London, to meet some of his fighters and talks about his future plans for his camp on the eve of his first televised show.
Fearon has been championing his boxing promotions as ‘Every Fight is a Main Event’ where he tries to equally match all the opponents to create a 50/50 fight, which he feels will be his unique selling point in becoming successful as a promotional outfit.
iFilm London Productions present a behind the scenes look at Fearon as he introduces us to his setup part 1 of the exclusive 2-part mini
series, ‘Inside The Real Fight Club’ with Spencer Fearon of Hard Knocks
Boxing Promotions can be seen on the video player above, with part 2 to follow soon.

The dynamic duo’s commitment to featuring genuine 50/50 match-ups
throughout their fight cards, which constantly produces leading ‘Fight
of the Year’ contenders, is almost certainly the reason that Premier
Sports came banging on the Hard Knocks office door just days after the
massively successful, sensationally exciting ‘Summer Smash’ event.

fantastic deal with Premier Sports, people are buying into the Hard
Knocks brand. It’s a six fight deal, which can be extended to more than
that.

“I’m really pleased to be involved with Premier.
“The thing is they approached us, it’s really cool because like
they’ve seen the hype we’re getting right now. A lot of press and stuff,
so I’m really, really grateful for every news writer who actually
believed in me.

“Steve Bunce predicted this about a year and half ago and now it’s come to fruition.
“The first guy to publicly scream this out, was in the Sun newspaper a
few years ago, was Colin Hart and Claude Abrahams of Boxing News he put
out a big piece that I was promoting.

“This means a lot to me, I mean when people are coming up to me and
saying how fantastic our shows are. So when people like you Rio, you’ve
been in boxing a long time. People like you, people like Jim McDonald,
people like Steve Bunce and people like Steve Lillis say that I’m the
man that can, it really says it all and TV had to come on board.

“Everyone knows that to promote is to sell something and it’s no good
selling rubbish, you’ve got to sell the best product, you know what I
mean. All these other guys can have a load of money and the rest of it,
but they can’t beat my atmosphere, you know what I mean.

“Now everyone is screaming about 50/50 fights. Other guys are
screaming that they want to do 50/50 fights so everyone is cottoning on.
So the fact that I have been pioneering it.

“Now everyone is looking at me, I’m raising my game, yeah I did it
first, now everyone wants to do it, which is cool as we’ll get rid of
the garbage and the sport will grow. Now you’re going to get guys that
want to fight each other on other shows, just like they always have on
Hard Knocks shows.” added Fearon.
