South African Sithembele Kibiti, scheduled to box Bristol's Lee Haskins for the vacant Commonwealth Flyweight Title, has failed a brain scan on his arrival to the UK. Lee Haskins is now scheduled to box Delroy Spencer over 8 rounds in a rematch from their first fight that was for the English Flyweight Title back in December. Spencer has always requested a rematch as he had to pull out of their fight after the third round due to a rib injury.
Also added to the undercard is Leigh Alliss v Neil Simpson. Alliss takes a step up in class to face the former British & Commonwealth Light Heavyweight Champion over 8 rounds. Simpson has come back with 2 wins as he looks to challenge for major honours again.
