British Championship Circular released on September 9, 2021
In this month's latest news, unbeaten former English titlist Linus Udofia (16-0, 8KOs) gets his long-awaited crack at the middleweight title currently held by Felix Cash (14-0, 10KOs). The rising star from Luton won't get his shot until next year now though as he has a fight booked in for October 2 on the undercard of Chris Eubank Jr. vs Sven Elbir at Wembley Arena first.
Unbeaten Danny Ball (10-0-1, 4KOs) gets a shot at welterweight champion Ekow Essuman (15-0, 6KOs) in his home city of Birmingham, and Kyle Yousaf (16-0, 7KOs) will get his shot at the winner of the flyweight championship taking place on September 18 between Tommy Frank (13-2, 3KOs) and Matt Windle (6-3-1).
