“I’ve been training for this for years and I’ve just done an eight-week fight camp in Birmingham at UTC.”

Aaron added: “This is my first pro fight – straight in at the deep end.

“I’m confident. If I didn’t think I was going to win I wouldn’t go in there.

“He wants to kill me and I want to kill him, it’s as simple as that.”
