Carl Johanneson is going to be looking to avenge one of only two defeats he's suffered in a fortnight, 13 July, as he goes in against European Super Featherweight champion Leva Kirakosyan. The 2004 defeat was the last time Johanneson lost, whilst Kirakosyan (25-4) is undefeated since the fight before he beat Johanneson, against Michael Gomez.

Full RBR coverage will not be provided on this one I'm afraid, cause I'm going to be at the Fflam music Festival that weekend. However, I wish I could watch this one, cause it has all the hallmarks of being an absolute cracker, and I will definitely be putting the SKy+ on for it. They're both heavy handed, and Johanneson has been on the up and up since the defeat, and I reckon he could well beat Kirakosyan this time around. And despite him being really difficult to interview, it's hard not to like the lad.
