Sheffield sports fans look to get behind their "Man Of Steel"
Tickets for the "He's Back" promotion are literally flying out of the door.
Fight Academy boss Dennis Hobson stated today "It's great that the Sheffield people are getting behind Clinton on his return to the ring. Clinton's been out for a year but it's obvious from the response that the fans haven't forgot about him"
"The latest figures from the arena are great and it's looking to be a fantastic atmosphere and event on Saturday night".
Woods faces mandatory challenger Julio Gonzalez at the Hallam FM Arena in defence of his IBF title.
Former WBO Champion Gonzalez is as tough as they come and his only losses have come in World title fights against the great Roy Jones JR, Zsolt Erdei and to Clinton in the 1st defence of his title.
The fantastic offers given by Fight Academy seem to have done the trick.
Adults buying a ticket can get a child in free and supporters of the regions football teams as well as the Steelers can receive a 10% when buying 2 tickets or more.
Anyone wanting to attend this great event should act quickly and call:
Hallam FM Arena Box Office: 01142 565656
