Timeline

1986

Christopher Evangelou (12 January 1986) is a British actor and former professional boxer who competed from 2009 to 2016.

Christopher Evangelou was born in Wood Green, London in the United Kingdom on 12 January 1986.

He is of Greek Cypriot origin.

Growing up, Evangelou and his family would wake up at 3 AM to watch Mike Tyson, Evander Holyfield, and Naseem Hamed fight.

Evangelou's brother, Preston, took up boxing and exposed Chris to boxing in person at an early age.

When Evangelou was 17 he was involved in a verbal altercation in the street.

While the incident did not get physical, he said that he felt "an inch tall after that" and he "could've done better," so he decided to start boxing.

Evangelou started boxing at the Haringey Boxing Gym in Tottenham when he was 17 under coach Chris Hall and had his first amateur fight after 6 months of training.

He decided to pursue boxing as a career at age 18.

1997

A rematch with Danny Connor ended with a 97–93 victory to Connor who knocked Evangelou down twice in the 7th round.

2006

As an amateur, he won 5 international gold medals and a 2006 national champion in the under-20 category.

2008

He was recruited to box for Cyprus at the 2008 Olympic games in Beijing but he lost his last qualifying match to the number one boxer on the German team.

Evangelou turned professional at the age of 23 after an amateur career of 40 fights with 35 wins.

As a professional, Evangelou was offered contracts at several boxing gyms.

He went to the Wildcard Boxing Gym in Los Angeles, California to meet acclaimed boxing trainers Freddie Roach and Jesse Reid.

After a sparring session, the coaches at the Wildcard Boxing Gym offered Evangelou a contract but he refused because he wanted to stay in the UK, where his family and fans were.

He also spent time training with boxing legend Ricky Hatton.

Evangelou was considering signing with Hatton's camp and also the camp of Calzaghe Promotions, a boxing organization run by former World Boxing Organization super middleweight champion Joe Calzaghe.

Evangelou finally decided to sign for Matchroom Promotions which is part of the Barry Hearn sporting group.

2011

2012

Evangelou suffered his first defeat on 8 September 2012 to Danny Connor 98–94 in a ten-round competition at London's Alexandra Palace.

The decision was questioned by many boxing pundits and professionals who had thought it a clear win for Evangelou.

In an interview in March 2012 with World Boxing News, he said that he would like to compete against Darren Hamilton for the Southern Area Belt to earn a spot in the rankings as one of Britain's top 10 fighters.

2013

Evangelou suffered a further loss on 30 November 2013 on points 56–59 to Ashley Mayall making a 3rd defeat in a row.

Evangelou is managed by his father Costakis Evangelou, who handles publicity and sponsorship for his son.
