Martin Concepcion bumped into promoter Clifton Mitchell while he
was celebrating his 31st birthday and agreed to box on his show at
Hermitage Leisure Centre in Whitwick on Friday, October 5. The rematch between Kreshnik Qato and Matt Hainy for the
English middleweight title tops a bill that also includes red-hot prospects
Arfan Iqbal, Louis Norman and Jahmaine Smyle.
Local ticket-sellers Marc Ketnor and ‘Prince’ Dave Davis
also meet in a hotly-anticipated rematch.
Concepcion feared his exciting career may be over after
undergoing knee surgery to correct the injury that ruled him out of his
challenge for Nick Blackwell’s English middleweight title in March.
But the Leicester left hooker has been back at the gym on
Navigation Street with trainer Jez Brogan and says he wants to win either
British or Commonwealth honours before he hangs up his gloves.
Concepcion, beaten in challenges for both belts and a
Midlands champion at two weights, admits he “can’t wait\” to get back in the
ring.
“For a while, I wasn’t sure if I could carry on boxing,”
he admitted, “and have been down the pub a bit more than usual.
“I didn’t know what to do with myself because boxing has
always been there. It was horrible.
“But I’ve got a bit more direction now.”
Tickets for the show are available from 01332-367453.
