An elbow injury has kayoed IBF light heavyweight champion Clinton Woods' June 23 title defense against Julio Gonzales on the undercard of Hatton-Castillo in Las Vegas. According to the Sun tabloid, Woods must have surgery to free a trapped nerve in his elbow. "I'm gutted," he told the Sun. "The operation couldn't be avoided and there's no way I'd be fit for June 23."
===================
I'm disappointed with this one, cause it would have been a great appetiser for the main event. It also looks that once he comes back he'll probably have to go straight in to a fight with his new mandatory, Marco Huck. I'd prefer him to get a tune-up fight, cause he'll have been out for quite a while by then. Roll on an Autumn return for Woods though.... he needs a bit of luck and is one of the nicest blokes in boxing.
