British, English and European Championship Circular released on April 14, 2022
In this month's latest news, Mark Heffron (27-2-1, 21KOs) gets another shot at the British title, this time at super-middleweight, against Lennox Clarke (20-1-1, 8KOs). 'Kid Dynamite's' first attempt was against Denzel Bentley (15-1-1, 13KOs) for the middleweight version, which he was forced to retire from in thr fourth round due to a badly swollen left eye.
Battersea's Bentley battles unbeaten Linus Udofia (17-0, 9KOs) for his old belt, now vacant, on May 13. So the two old rivals are both vying for Lonsdale belts separately, 18 months on from their last meeting.
Former English titlist Dalton Smith (10-0, 8KOs) will get his toughest test yet against the slick Akeem Ennis Brown (15-1, 1KOs) for the vacant super-lightweight British strap.
