10 years today, happy professional boxing anniversary to us…

It’s been some journey, Swindon's Kelly Morgan winning the @wbcboxing Female Silver Middleweight Championship on our first show, supported by @ryan_maartin, @thedukewatkins, Akeem Ennis-Brown (Riiddy) and Des Newton.

Since then, we've worked with all the major governing bodies in world boxing and promoted Area, English, British, Commonwealth and @iboboxingofficial World Title fights.

Fast forward to 2026 and we're promoting an arena show in London, live on @daznboxing, the global home of boxing.

My wingman, @kyle.neilson, has gone from being a runner to one of the best matchmakers and event operators in the business.

Alongside the key addition of @jaredhayter and with help from many others who have been on our journey, we've built something we're incredibly proud of.

Over the last decade we've seen promoters come and go. We've had great nights, difficult nights and plenty of lessons along the way.

But we're still here.

Ten years on, we're more ambitious than ever, and it still feels like we're only just getting started.

Thank you to every boxer, coach, official, sponsor, partner and fan who has been part of the journey so far.
Here's to the next 10 years.

In boxing, some figures inherit the fight game.
Others build their place in it through hard work, consistency, and passion for the sport.

Mark Neilson has become one of the UK’s busiest figures in small hall and domestic boxing through his work with Neilson Boxing.

Born into a boxing family, Mark is the son of former professional heavyweight Eddie Neilson, who shared the ring with names such as Frank Bruno and Joe Bugner. Boxing was around him from an early age, and he spent years around gyms and amateur boxing before eventually moving into promotion and management himself.

Since launching Neilson Boxing in 2016, he has steadily built a respected platform for fighters across the UK scene — promoting regular shows, developing prospects, and helping fighters gain opportunities at domestic and international level.

From small hall events in Swindon…
to selling out York Hall…
to becoming recognised as one of Britain’s most active promoters.

Neilson’s journey has been built on consistency and understanding fighters from the grassroots level upward.

In 2024, he was inducted into the Ex-Boxers Association Hall of Fame in the promoter category — recognition of years spent contributing to the sport behind the scenes.

Not always in the spotlight…
but always helping keep boxing moving.

Every fighter who steps through the ropes knows he is entering something far greater than himself...

That was the road we chose... Eubank

A dynasty... a Legacy woven into the history of British boxing 🇬🇧

For twelve unforgettable rounds, David Papot and Harlem Eubank gave everything they had. Every exchange carried years of sacrifice... Every round was built on thousands of unseen hours, early mornings, injuries, relentless discipline... Three times David sent Harlem to the canvas... Three times Harlem rose again, refusing to surrender, showing the courage, resilience and heart of a true English Lion... and threw his opponent back to it at his turn!

Great fights are never created by one man alone, and this night will be remembered because of two exceptional fighters....

An unforgettable night like this does not happen by chance. It exists because of the men and women who dedicate their lives to protecting the integrity of the sport... reminding us what True Fights are... To Mark Neilson @mark.neilson , MF Pro Boxing @mfproboxing , Nisse Sauerland @sauerlandbros, Sam Walmsley, the #IBF, the officials, the referees and every member of the British boxing community, thank you for welcoming us into your Home... professionalism, fairness and respect. From the moment we arrived until the final bell, we were treated as athletes, respected as competitors, and embraced as part of the great Boxing family... We thank Mr. EUBANK for an unbelievable fight, Mr. NEILSON, and the #Daznboxing squad for memorable shots...

& those who were there will remember something far greater... They will remember a Frenchman who walked into the home of a boxing dynasty and looked them in the Eyes.
They will remember an English warrior who refused to surrender... ⚔️
They will remember a night when respect mattered more than nationality, and Honour mattered more than Victory.
Belts change hands.
Records fade.
Posters grow old.
Scorecards are eventually forgotten.

But some fights outgrow boxing itself.

They become part of its history.

This was one of them.....
