A July showdown in St. Louis, Missouri between former undisputed welterweight champion Cory Spinks and IBF junior middleweight champion Roman Karmazin was officially approved by the IBF. Karmazin had a mandatory challenger in Rodney Jones but the IBF has granted an exception allowing Karmazin to defend his title against Spinks. There has been some questions about whether the fight will be held July 1st or July 8th. Since the fight is going to broadcast live on Showtime and since Showtime hosts its events the first Saturday of each month, it’s looking likely that the fight will take place on Saturday July 1.

Finally....SPinks is back...whatchuthink?
