    CHRIS ‘THE FLASH’ EVANGELOU 7-0 (1 KO) returns to the ring this Saturday night on the undercard of the British and Commonwealth heavyweight title bout between Dereck Chisora and Tyson Fury.
    Evangelou has impressed since turning professional two years ago with a perfect seven wins out of seven. The humble but ambitious boxer is setting his sights high aiming for a domestic title by the start of 2012 and then a world title soon after.
    The light-welterweight even believes he will reach his dream of taking a world title belt off Amir Khan one day, ‘The Flash’ exclusively told UNDISPUTED, “I would love to get in the ring with him one day, I have high expectations. If I don’t become a world champion I would have failed. Khan is a great fighter it would be a great fight we are both quick but I do reckon I am that bit stronger. I have a long way to go but when I get to the top and if he is still around I will definitely want to.”
    Evangelou is an excellent prospect and one that many have tipped to be a world champion in the future including top trainers such as Freddie Roach.

    Evangelou will not make it past british level, i would be suprised if he wins the british!! Talking about him and Khan would be a good fight is a joke. He shifts alot of tickets but doesn't have the ability.

    How many times have you seen Evangelou box BA??

    I have seen him fight 6 times. He is not a 4-6 round fighter in my opinion. and he will get chances as he is probably already in the top 10 ticket sellers in the country.

    I know of him, haven't seen him live, but he doesn't seem to have much pop..... maybe with a bit more experience and fighting opponents who are willing to throw back some punches the ko's will come. Can't really judge though until he moves up a couple of levels. :good

    You don't have many good words to say about most boxers on this forum Rob but you do seem to like Evangelou, i just don't see the hype. I have watched him box live once when i was working up in london and i wasn't impressed. And from what i have heard off a few people he is nothing special. He must be a really popular lad though he does shift **** loads of tickets, don't know why.

    It's probably due to his level of opposition (survival mode opponents) although if he has heavy hands he should be able to get them out of there.
