\"\"<\/a>Waltham Abbey Light Welterweight Phil Gill is set for major television exposure, when he appears on the undercard of \u2018Dazzling\u2019 Darren Barker\u2019s European Middleweight Title showdown with Italian Domenico Spada at the Matchroom Sports promoted event at Olympia in Kensington, London, on Saturday 30th April 2011.<\/p>\n

Gill, whose record is 9 wins, 1 draw and no losses, has consistently proved himself to be one of the most crowd pleasing Light Welters on the circuit today. Gill\u2019s nonstop all action performance on his last outing, on Steve Goodwin\u2019s 5th March show, is a prime example of what a wider television audience have been missing, until now.<\/p>\n

Gill went to work hard and fast right from the opening bell, letting rip with both hands throughout the first round. His excellent ring craft barely allowed Nesbitt get any meaningful shots of his own in.<\/p>\n

Gill didn\u2019t quite get to dominate the second round quite to the level of the first as Nesbitt managed to find his range and let go with a couple of cracking right hands to the body. Gill didn\u2019t drop the pace and just responded with even more fast powerful left and rights.<\/p>\n

Round three was more even with both protagonists letting rip with shot after shot in quick succession, in fact this round could have gone to either way as both came so close to stopping the other at one point.<\/p>\n

In the first minute Gill let rip with a cracking left-right body head combination but was unable to finish off the clearly shaken Nesbitt. From then on it was a punch trading war until the final seconds when Nesbitt turned the tables with a hard right to the body that really rattled Gill, Nesbitt turned the tables and started to let rip with both hands until the final bell.<\/p>\n

The final round was much as before, with both pushing hard. Throughout the contest Gill had not only thrown more shots but also landed the most meaningful ones and was rightly pronounced victor by a 39-37 points margin.<\/p>\n

With performances such as this it comes as no surprise that promoter\u2019s like Steve Goodwin have made Gill a regular attraction on his shows and Barry Hearn\u2019s Matchroom Sports concern have decided to include him on the card for such a high profile event as Barker-Spada European Title showdown.<\/p>\n

Speaking earlier today an overjoyed Gill said, \u201cYeah I\u2019ve got on the bill of the Darren Barker show on the 30th April at London Olympia. It\u2019s a big step up for me, obviously it\u2019s in front of a bigger crowd than I\u2019m used to.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m really looking forward to that, I won\u2019t be fazed by that either as I\u2019m the kind of fighter that performs best in front of a big crowd. I\u2019m getting well excited as there\u2019ll be more people there.<\/p>\n

No opponents been named yet as it\u2019s only come about in the last few days. Mickey\u2019s (manager Mickey Helliet) had a show this weekend, so now that show is out of the way we\u2019ll start sorting out the tickets and all the details later this week.<\/p>\n

I never got out of the gym after my last fight because we got a young lad from Guernsey training. I know it\u2019s hard training on your own so I\u2019ve been in the gym to train with him as It helps him to work harder.<\/p>\n

My style has changed quite a bit since my debut. I\u2019m definitely a come forward fighter. There\u2019s a lot of guys that wont come and fight me because they know they are going to be in for a hard time if they come and fight me. All I ever do is come forward, I\u2019ll never change that because I don\u2019t want to be a boring fighter I always want to be exciting, it\u2019s just not in me to box of the back foot. For me it\u2019s about entertaining, give the crowd the full experience as it were.<\/p>\n

I think when the nation sees me on TV they wont want me off of it, I bring a lot to the table being a very exciting fighter. I\u2019m not afraid of getting hit, I know in boxing your not supposed to be getting hit, but you do get hit it\u2019s as simple as that. I not worried about taking a shot, if I have to take a few in a fight it makes it exciting.<\/p>\n

If these guys are going to come to fight they\u2019re going to get put over and that\u2019s what you\u2019re going to get on TV. These guys are going to come to fight, because it\u2019s on TV, and they\u2019re going to get put over.<\/p>\n

I box to the occasion, the bigger the occasion the better I perform.”<\/p>\n
