Fury takes on Nascimento – Feb. 19- Only on Super Channel

EDMONTON Feb. 14, 2011 – Super Channel, Canada’s only national English pay television network, is pleased to announce it will air Manchester’s heavyweight sensation Tyson Fury as he takes on another undefeated knockout specialist – Brazilian Marcelo Luiz Nascimento in a 10 round “International Special attraction fight” at Wembley Arena Feb. 19 at 3 p.m. ET, courtesy of Hennessy Sports.

After the fight with Francois Botha was knocked back by the BBBofC, Fury did not hesitate in accepting “the Hammer”, who’s record is 13 – 0 with 11ko’s. Similar to Fury’s record, which is 13 – 0 with 9ko’s.

“It angers me when you see so called heavyweight prospects keep having bums put in front of them every time. I don’t want to go through my career like that, I want to show them how it’s done, so I’m taking on this guy who has an unbeaten record and is a massive puncher, this is what you have to do to become a star,” said Fury

This great event of Championship boxing at Wembley Arena will also have two British title fights, the first title fight of the night will see Morden’s Lenny Daws looking to defend his British Light Welterweight title for a 3rd time and secure the Lonsdale belt outright when he squares up against Paddington’s Ashley Theophane.

The second British title up for grabs on the night will be for the welterweight crown, this will be contested between Shepherd’s Bush resident John O’Donnell and Craig Watson of Manchester. These two last meet back in April 2009 and produced 12 rounds of exciting boxing in which O’Donnell was crowned the new Commonwealth champion.
