"I am quite sure that he will win three-four fights very easily. When it comes to the title bout, he might reach till British title," former professional boxer told ANI here.

Lavishing praise on Vijender, Dharmendra said that the former is technically strong and has natural talent of boxing.

"The bouts will become more difficult in future. But Vijender's standard is high. He has won Olympic medals. He has a power in his punches. Coaches are impressed by him. He is technically strong and has natural talent of boxing. So he will surely perform well in the upcoming matches," he said.

The middleweight ace will now take on Nottingham's Dean Gillen in a four round middleweight contest on November 7.
