EBU Flyweight Title Defence

By  Per-Ake Persson

Queensberry Promotions were the sole bidders today in Rome for EBU flyweight champion Valery Yanchy's defence against mandatory challenger and reigning British and Commonwealth titleholder Kevin Satchell (12-0).
 
Queensberry bid 21 000 EUR and the fight will go ahead in Liverpool at a date to be announced.
 
Yanchy, from Belarus but fighting out of La Coruna (Spain), is 23-3-2 and no stranger to fight on the road and he won the title by beating Andrea Sarritzu in Italy earlier this year.
