MAJOR HEAVYWEIGHT ANNOUNCEMENT

Saturday 3rd March Jamie McDonnell defends his European Bantamweight title against Malik Bouziane and chief support on the night sees the comeback of former world title challenger Matt Skelton vs Tom Dallas of Kent over 8 rounds.

Skelton (25-6) has been out of the ring since the final of the prize fighter tournament back in October 2010 but has been in the gym on regular basis.

"Britain has the best crop of young heavyweights in the world at the moment and I can't wait to get back in the mix and start taking on the likes of Price and Fury." said Skelton

Tom Dallas (12-1) is looking forward to getting back in the ring and back to winning ways and sees Skelton as a great opponent and an even better name to have on his record.

Dallas said; " I am not making any excuses, David beat me fair and square but I took the fight at short notice. This time I will have time to train to beat Skelton and hopefully get another crack at Pricey later on down the line.

"Many heavyweights have a loss on their record, it's how you come back.

"I wanted to fight a real opponent and not a Latvian lemon, so it is great to be taking on such a high profile fighter."

Matt Skelton vs. Tom Dallas is chief support to Jamie McDonnell European title defence at Hillsborough Leisure Centre on March 3rd and will be available to watch on Sky Sports HD1 and tickets are available to buy online via www.frankmaloney.com prices VIP £100, ringside £80 and unreserved £35.
