(FEB 18) Cyclone Promotions
are delighted to announce that exciting contender Josh Taylor
(11-0-0) will face Mexico's former two-weight world champion
Humberto Soto (66-9-2) at the SSE Hydro in Glasgow on March 3rd.
The exciting Super Lightweight showdown will be screened live
and exclusively on Channel 5 and is proudly sponsored by
Maxi-Nutrition, Ladbrokes and Voltarol.
In a female boxing bout,
undefeated IBO World Lightweight champion Chantelle Cameron
(5-0-0) will make her first defence of her belt against Myriam
Dellal. The talented Northampton star will be looking to build
on her title-winning performance in December when she stopped
Brazil’s Viviane Obenauf.
Cameron said, “I’m really looking
forward to fight night already. We’ve been working hard behind
the scenes, and I can’t wait to put on a show for everyone in
York Hall and all of those watching on Channel 5. It’s great to
be fighting a bit closer to home, and I’m grateful for all of my
supporters travelling down from Northampton for this one!”
