00:00Right, so I'm here with Deputy General Mikey Harrison from Sheffield. Mikey, just on 1 and 0, victory over experienced General Victor Hidalgo, how did you feel out there? You said debut, they always say you always remember your debut.
00:14Yeah, I think that's definitely an understatement for tonight. The amount of noise, the amount of people that have come out to support me, the noise that they've brought.
00:29And to get the win, a 40-36 win as well over an experienced fighter like Victor, who's a very, very tough, unorthodox, very awkward fighter. I feel like I've done well tonight.
00:49John, how would you feel about that? What did you make of Mikey out there?
00:53I've foiled Billy. I haven't stopped smiling since. I said a little bit in the interview before, but I've had him since he was 12. I've had him since he was 12.

03:37never told him it was boxing. he says he never told him it was boxing. he says
03:44well then if I lose they don't have to know so I ran straight away
03:58Me and Grae, I know that not everybody was in, but me and Grae, me and Michael since we were 12, you know like, just want to put that into it.
04:06Like, believe in yourself as much as we believe in you.
04:09If you're a nice boxing pro, a nice, he's, believe me, he's telling people he's boxing.
04:13You know what I'm talking about? You will see the best.
04:15Today he's amateur side now, because we're good kids, 50-50 kids, we're on the amateur belt and stuff.
04:20But it was never going to suit him. He didn't like, he didn't know, like not knowing we were boxing.
04:25He didn't like us all calling boxing tomorrow and doing that.
04:27He's a militant, he's a professional, everything's written out, everything's planned out.
04:32He's asleep, he's liquid, he's training, so all this is just going to roll into one big massive ball.
04:39And I feel like he's going to do really well.
04:41Well, that leads us on to the next question, Jon.
04:44Obviously, it is just the debut, obviously you've got to get that out of the way to kick it off.
04:49Where do you, how far do you think Mikey can go?
04:52I personally would be disappointed if he don't win a British title.
04:57And that, to me, I would give anything to win a British title.
05:01Anything to give.
05:02Well, for me it's the best title around. Yeah, world title and stuff.
05:05But for me, the British title is the best title around.
05:07To win a British title is just, for me, just up here.
05:13And then after that, anything can happen.
05:15The thing is as well, he's 20, I know he's massive.
05:20But he's 20 years of age, that's what I'm talking about.
05:2220 years of age, with 21 bouts of experience, 22 now, which is nothing.
05:28He's an absolute baby man.
05:30So there's going to be times where I put him in with kids when people think I shouldn't do.
05:35There'll be times I put him in with kids and people go, oh he's brimming for it, he's useless.
05:38But I don't care.
05:40As long as he trusts me, and Dennis trusts me, and Steve trusts me, and we're all on the same page.
05:45Me, him, Dennis and Steve, we're all on the same page.
05:48I can't, I would be disappointed if he didn't win the British title.
05:52And then when he does, you have no idea.
05:55And the other thing as well, sorry I'm rambling, I'm taking Mikey's side.
05:59But with the team we've got in our gym, but then our promotion team.
06:03Dennis is the man, alright.
06:05One on one what he'll do with him as well.
06:08The extra special time, the little bits extra, and Steve and everybody.
06:13There's no reason you can't be further and further and better.
06:16But I'm like a proud dad, so tomorrow I might say I wasn't going to win the English title.
