JOHNNY FISHER is too posh to push around Alen Babic, says the Croatian bouncer.
The 25-year-old heavyweight is a fans’ favourite thanks to his knockout power, social media star dad Big John and the classy way he carries himself.

The strapping Romford Bull is a hero around Exeter – as well as Essex – after he gained a 2:1 history degree at the university and starred in the rugby team.
But Saturday night‘s opponent Babic – a 33-year-old former doorman and graduate from the school of hard knocks – reckons he will teach the bachelor of arts a lesson.
The shaven-headed slugger said: “Me and Johnny have very different stories, very different.
“I only knew one way, so me standing here means a lot more than him standing here.
“I was meant to be in jail or dead or even robbing drug dealers, I was meant for all the worst things
“This is a collision of two worlds, we are two worlds far apart.
“There’s a big difference in age – and everything else – and it will tell on Saturday.”
Babic was a fan-friendly wrecking ball when he burst onto the scene – ignoring almost every basic boxing rule.

After 11 violent wins – nine in the UK where he gained the nickname of The Savage – he was given an April 2023 world title shot at the new and unnecessary bridgerweight title.
The one-round battering he suffered against Lukasz Rozanski was brutal but nothing compared to the fall out that followed and changed his perspective.
“I don’t want belts,” he growled with conviction. “I just want fights the fans can enjoy .
“I went for a world title last time and it f***ed my whole life.
“I paid one year of my life a year of depression, all the sorts of bad things you can imagine
“I paid with my own blood, literally. And I’m never going to do it again.”
