WBC Asia Champion Neeraj Goyat Co-Headlines Let Battle Commence IV on the 29th May – Live on FITE TV
Indian Star Neeraj Goyat, who was set to fight Amir Khan in 2019 makes his UK Debut in Aberdeen


Шест пъти, five division World Champion and Promoter Lee Mcallister announced that he and World Boxing Council (WBC) Asia Welterweight Champion Neeraj Goyal will co-headline LET BATTLE COMMENCE IV, that takes place on the 29th May 2021 and broadcast live on FITE TV, as well as further linear and digital channels globally.


Reigning WBC Asia Champion Goyat is probably the best known Indian boxer by fans of the pugilistic arts, following the announcement back in 2019 that he was to face Amir Khan in a mega fight in Saudi Arabia, unfortunately prior to the much anticipated showdown, Goyat was seriously injured in a car crash and had to pull out, Khan fought Australia’s Billy Dib.


Goyat fully recovered from his injuries and immediately got back to winning ways, in his most recent contest, that took place at the Majestic Pride Ship, Panjim, India back in March this year Goyat knocked-out Sandeep Kumar after just 34 секунди от четвъртия рунд.


On making the announcement McAllister said, “I’m a big fan of Neeraj.


“We had planned to bring him to the UK back in 2019, but when the opportunity to fight Amir was put on the table I just tore up the contract. Fighting Amir on an internationally broadcast event was a huge opportunity for Neeraj and I wasn’t going to stand in the way.


“To say I was gutted the fight didn’t happen is an understatement as the fans world-wide would have seen just how talented Neeraj is.


“So here we are two years later and finally we are going to have Neeraj fight on one of our shows and unlike when we were originally bringing him over, now our events are televised, so finally fans worldwide will get to see just what an immense talent he is.”


In mid-March 2020, like all sporting events, Professional Boxing shows world-wide were cancelled, due to the COVID-19 Pandemic.


UK Government restrictions were relaxed in July 2020 so that sporting events could resume, however with the proviso that no spectators would be allowed to attend. With this in mind McAllister joined forces with the British & Ирландски орган по бокс (БИБА) to create a series of Professional Boxing events that take place ‘Behind Closed Doors’.


Учредителната НЕКА БЪДЕМ ДА ЗАПОЧНЕМ събитие, that took place behind closed doors at the Northern Hotel in Aberdeen on Saturday 18th July 2020, was headlined by longtime WBO Featherweight King Скот Харисън versus PBC International Champion Пол Пиърс. The main support featured the professional debut of ten time Kickboxing World Champion Кейтлин Форан.


НЕКА БЪДЕМ НАЧАЛО II, took place on Friday 4th September 2020 and was headlined by PBC & WBU International Champion Нейтън Бийти versus UK based Nicaraguan Julio Bendana. The undercard featured no less than three female contests, including two of the UK’s top female amateur boxers, Холи Тоул и Елинор Коулсън, making their professional debuts, this event also took place behind closed doors in Aberdeen.


The third edition, НЕКА БЪДЕМ ДА ЗАПОЧНЕМ – ЛЪВИЦИТЕ, that takes place on Saturday 24th April 2021 is set to enter the record books as the first all Female professional boxing event to take place not only in the UK but also the first in Europe.

PBC/WBU International Super Lightweight Champion Нейтън Бийти, rising unbeaten Super Featherweight prospect Кевин Трейнър, stylish unbeaten Heavyweight prospect Крейг Дик, unbeaten Middleweight prospect Adam Stewart, local Heavyweight Liam Allan makes his second professional outing, whilst Indian Featherweight Sukhdeep Singh прави професионалния си дебют.
