We have had the opportunity to catch up with undefeated Australian Heavyweight Lucas 'Big Daddy' Browne, who has kindly given up some free time to give us a Q&A session:

BHB - Hi Lucas, Firstly thank you for taking the time to do this Q&A with us,
So currently your boxing record stands at a perfect 19-0 with 17 coming inside the distance,
Your next fight coming up against Eric Martel Bahoeli on 26/04/14 in Sheffield England for the vacant Commonwealth Heavyweight title, 
How much do you know about your opponent and how confidant are you of taking the title back to Australia?

LB - I know that he's got power, he's a big boy and I wont be taking him lightly, but I'm always confident going into any fight.

BHB - Will you be involved in the Super8 Tournament coming up in Auckland on June 4th? 

LB - No I'm not, I've been told it's not part of my Promoters plans for me, and I don't get a say unfortunately, So I'll have to watch someone else collect the $200k

BHB - Last year you seem to have stepped up your level of opponents by fighting the likes of James Toney, Travis Walker and Britain's Richard Towers, But at the same time failed to lure the likes of Tyson Fury, Dereck Chisora & Deontay Wilder into the ring as well as David Price choosing to vacate and even internet rumors of a fight with American Kimbo Slice, Have any of these fights ever been close to being agreed, and have you found this frustrating?

LB - I wanted to fight Kimbo Slice a while ago but I was told I was too dangerous. I want to keep stepping up and challenging myself, but I can only fight who Hatton put in front of me.

BHB - A few weeks ago you had a Twitter 'rant' seemingly aimed at your Promoter Ricky Hatton for failing to keep you busy with big fights, Do you believe that a Commonwealth Title and higher ranking will make it easier to secure these big fights, and are you still happy working with Hatton Promotions?

LB - I just want to keep fighting and keep knocking people out.

BHB - Which of your previous fights would you class as the best performance of your career and why?

LB - I'm never happy with my performances, I think the Toney fight was good to show I can do the distance, The walker fight to show what level I'm at and the Towers fight to show I can finish a fight.

BHB -  You have been vocal about trying to get a slot on the Chisora vs Fury undercard with Audley Harrison mentioned as a possible opponent, any news on whether you will be on the card on July 26th?

LB - That's just Twitter chatter, all decisions about who I fight are with Hatton, Not me.

BHB - Who wins and how, Chisora vs Fury ?

LB - I still think Fury wins because of his reach.

BHB - Fellow Australian Alex Leapai gets his shot at Wladimir Klitschko on 26/04/14 , A fight which no doubt 

you have a keen interest in, how do you see that fight going?

LB - Good luck and congrats to Alex but he's outclassed in this one.

BHB - You have come into Boxing having previously been involved in MMA, was this always apart of the plan?

LB - I wanted a belt in Boxing , MMA and Kickboxing when i first started. I got a belt in MMA and 5 so far in boxing so I'm doing ok.

BHB - Did you have a boxing idle as a child and is there a boxer from the past you would love to have shared the ring with?

LB - Without a doubt.. Mike Tyson.

BHB - For a boxer from Australia, you have a huge fan base following here in the UK, Why do you think that is?

LB - I can fight, I knock people out, I tell it how it is and don't talk shit.

BHB - What are your future goals left to achieve in boxing?

LB - I want to be able to buy my own car, and have my own house, That's all that matters.

BHB - You recently started selling your own clothing range, is it available for fans in the UK to purchase?

LB - They're selling on www.urbantees.co and are available Worldwide.

BHB - Finally, if anyone doesn't already follow you and your career on any of the social media sites, how can they find you?

LB - big_daddy_browne1 on Instagram, bigdaddybrowne1 on Twitter & Lucas Browne and Big Daddy on Facebook

BHB - Thanks for taking the time to do this Q&A with us and we wish you all the best on the 26th of April & also hope to see you back here in England on the Chisora Fury undercard

LB - No Drama.
