    Mark 'Kid Dynamite' Heffron aims to extend his unblemished career to 6-0 when he fights in Moscow, Russia on the 8th of February. Kid Dynamite whos no stranger to fighting as a pro in foreign lands having fought in Holland, Poland and Hungary all in September 2010 and Ireland in 2011. Mark has fought just once in the UK on the Haye-Harrison undercard where he KOd previously undefeated opponent Chris O Brien in round 1. 2012 promises to be a big year for Heffron and all going well he should be fighting for the British Light Middleweight title towards the end of the year.:thumbsup

    Ive seen Ronnie and Mark Heffron down at Arnie's both are outstanding prospects and both will be British Champions by the end of the year, Paul Butler will be British & European Champion and should be fighting for a World Title within 18 months remember these names :nod

    Not seen an awful lot of Mark Heffron, heard good things though. Needs to be fighting more.

    Butler is possibly the best prospect in Britain right now

    I heard he was having trouble getting a license to fight here which is why he was fighting in Poland and Hungary and ****. Then he fought on the Haye/Harrison card so it seemed like it had been sorted out but he's been inactive since then and now fighting in Russia.

    what was the trouble though?

    was it for anything he had done outside the ring etc?

    i think it was more to do with his manager not having a BBBOC liceace or something petty like that .

    Yeah, I think he's got his license sorted out now. It was something to do with having to wait a certain amount of time before the BBBofC will grant you a license, if I remember correctly.

    The boy has a lot of potential. I'd rather see him in the UK fighting ranked contenders, he's easily good enough to work his way into title contention.

    The problem with fights like this is the experience of fighting on the road is undermined by the fact 10 people will be watching it, and it will be against a bum.
