WBA sanctions Balzay - Magee fight in September

Jul 11, 2012

The World Boxing Association approved September 22 as the new date for the mandatory fight between the regular champion, the Hungarian Karoly Balzay and the Interim Champion Brian Magee.

The promoters requested the new date approval.

At first, the mandatory battle would take place on July 7, but a delay of Balzay to sign the contracts and unavailability of TV date caused the modification on the date.

The WBA championships committee based on its authority to modify defenses lapses approved the request of the new date due to the unforeseen circumstances.

You know Barry has just been so confident for so long about this fight that something tells me he 'knows' something...

Very good fight. Martinez epitomises more than anyone, true Euro level.

Great fight, this has come for Framton at the perfect time, would love if the undercard was as good as anticipated to.
Yea, theres loads of talent fighters on the card, hopefully Hearn can match them well, Lindsay, O'kane, Conlan, Martin Ward (2nd fight in 2 weeks if he doesn't get cut that is) Yafai, Cardle and Mccloskey.

Same night as Burns/Mitchell aswell :ibutt:ibutt:ibutt

Kiko is having a warm up fight in belfast on Saturday against Douggie Curran, so I'd imagine he's having his full training camp over here.

Apparently Kiko has pulled out with tendinitis.

KIKO will not defend his European title

According to news from Ireland, Kiko Martinez will not defend his European title on September 22 to Carl Frampton. For the cancellation of the fight is alleged Kiko tendinitis, but the injury seems not serious. The European title defenses Kiko Martinez have jinxed because for one reason or another have been canceled on occasion, even Kiko came to leave the continental title. Hopefully, your recovery and firmly straighten the career of one of our boxing figures in recent years.
