Along with Ciaran Baynes, in March 2009 he set up Hard Knocks Boxing Promotions which earned plaudits from boxing fans and commentators alike for its focus on 50-50 match-ups and bringing back to the ring the Mongolian Warrior Choi Tseveenpurev.

A former boxer himself, fighting under the nickname 'The Spirit', he became the youngest ever black promoter in Britain, when promoting his first bill on 9 October 2007. His record consisted of 11 wins and 6 losses

During his boxing career he was used as the model for the body graphics for popular computer game Shadowman in 1998 and appeared in acclaimed 2006 film Rollin' with the Nines.

After a promising amateur career, where he won the London ABA novices and London boys club welterweight titles, he was stopped in the first round of the final of the south east divisional Light Middleweight championships in Bexleyheath in February 1995 against the future British European & WBU champion Wayne Alexander. Fearon turned professional in 1997 and in a stop-start career compiled a record of 11-6 before retiring in 2003. His penultimate bout with David Walker was voted the 2003 fight of the year by the BBC website.
