Ryan Walsh (21-1-1, 10 KOs) is promising a career-best performance when he travels to Denmark to face Dennis Ceylan (17-0-1, 8 KOs) for the European Featherweight title on October 15 at the Arena Nord in Frederikshavn.<\/p>\n

The 30 year-old from Cromer says he is looking forward to fighting overseas and believes the pressure of being away from home will bring out his best.<\/p>\n

\u2018\u2019I\u2019m really excited to be fighting away from home,\u2019\u2019 said Walsh, the current British Champion. \u2018\u2019I\u2019ve done it once in Tenerife, but I still felt like the home fighter there. I know I won\u2019t feel one bit like that in Denmark.<\/p>\n

\u2018\u2019I\u2019ve always wanted to be the away fighter and to have everyone routing for the other guy. I want to be booed, I want to be the underdog and I want to feel the pressure.<\/p>\n

\u2018\u2019Pressure can either make you or break you as a fighter, and I love pressure. There is a saying that pressure makes diamonds, and I believe that will be the case for me next Saturday.<\/p>\n

\u2018\u2019It will be the best possible Ryan Walsh on the night, and it will have to be as this is by far the biggest fight of my career. I know it\u2019s going to be a tough, and when you\u2019re fighting for the European title it should be a tough, but I\u2019m ready for the challenge.<\/p>\n

”This is the next step for me. I\u2019ve won English and British titles, the European is next, and then I want to challenge for World honours.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

Walsh has only one loss on his record, a points defeat to the current IBF World Featherweight Champion Lee Selby, but rather than see this as a negative, the British boxer believes this setback has led him to where he is today.<\/p>\n

\u2018\u2019I don\u2019t call it a loss, I call it a learn,\u2019\u2019 he says. \u2018\u2019I\u2019ve learnt so much from that one loss compared to all my other fights, and it all comes down to your attitude.<\/p>\n

\u2018\u2019If you look at a loss like it\u2019s the end of the world, and think I\u2019ve lost so I\u2019ll retire, then you have lost. The only way you can truly lose is to give up. If you get back up, dust yourself down and come back, then it\u2019s not a loss.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

Dennis Ceylan\u2019s European title fight with Ryan Walsh tops a blockbuster bill at the Arena Nord in Frederikshavn on October 15. Rashid Kassem faces his toughest career test against British boxer Joe Murray, Abdul Khattab takes on Bartlomiej Grafka, Dina Thorslund faces Oksana Romanova, and professional debutant Mikkel Mielsen meets Andrei Dolhozhyieu.<\/p>\n
