Promoter Mick Hennessy must be suffering the worst headache right now as his ‘Battle of the Midlands’ fight-night tomorrow night sees another change of venue. Having already been re-scheduled for the SkyDome in Coventry - the event will now take place at Wolverhampton Civic Hall.
Top of the bill features Birmingham Champion - “Mad Dog” Wayne Elcock, who makes his first defence of the British Middleweight Title against mandatory challenger “The Dudley Body-Snatcher” Darren McDermott.
McDermott must be thrilled that he will now be fighting virtually in his own back yard !
But, despite what must have been an ‘organisational nightmare’ for Mick Hennessy, the fight-night, in association with 1st Team Promotions and GoldenPalace, boasts a ‘Midlands Area Welterweight Contest’ and a further ten under-card bouts on what promises to be an action-packed night of boxing.
Featuring:
Mark Lloyd v Andrew Alan Lowe
10 x 3 Midlands Area Welterweight Contest
Stephen Haughian v Raul Saiz
6 x 3 Welterweight Contest
James Flynn v Paddy Pollock
