Ashley believes British flyweight champion Shinny Bayaar is a fighter on the slide.
Sexton, 9-0, challenges the Oldham based Mongolian for his title at the Goresbrook Leisure Centre on Friday (14th May) and the 22 year-old can only see one outcome.
“I think Shinny is on the slide a little bit, but even if he’s not I am still going to beat him,” insisted the undefeated 22 year-old from Cheshunt.
“I’ve been sparring with people like Jerome Arnould, Rendall Munroe, Ian Napa and Sam Rukondo – people who are a couple of levels above Shinny so I am more than confident.”
Bayaar, 15-4, is making the first defence of his title and is unbeaten in 5 ½ years.
Despite being an underdog, Sexton is not worried and added: “The fight has come at a great time for me and a bad time for him.
“When I took the fight I started analysing performances and Shinny hasn’t looked so great in his last two fights.
“I would stop Chris Edwards. He wouldn’t lay a glove on me yet Chris looked good in some of the rounds and outboxed Shinny.
“That performance also put a question mark over Shinny’s power and in his last fight against Najah Ali the decision was a gift,” added Sexton.
On the same bill Olympic bronze medallist David Price, 5-0, steps up in class when he faces Russian heavyweight Daniil Peretyatko, 16-27.
