Frampton’s title defence is sold-out
Matchroom Press Release
Carl Frampton’s Commonwealth Super-Bantamweight title defence at York Hall, Bethnal Green on Saturday 28 January against Kris Hughes is completely sold out.
The unbeaten 24 year-old belt-holder tackles the Scotsman live on Sky Sports 1 and HD1 in the first defence of the title he claimed in September with a clinical four-round stoppage of Australian Mark Quon at the Odyssey Arena in Belfast.
That victory took his record to 11-0 and he is aiming to make it a round dozen against the 24 year-old Hughes, whose only loss in 16 fights came when he faced Jamie Arthur for the vacant Commonwealth title in October 2010 in east London.
Chief support on the night sees Erick ‘The Eagle’ Ochieng meet Nick Quigley for the vacant English Light-Middleweight title, while hot Islington Middleweight prospect John Ryder looks to extend the unbeaten start to his career to nine fights against Pole Mariusz Biskupski.
Daniel Cadman and Robin Reid meet in an eight-round Super-Middleweight clash, unbeaten Lightweight talent Ryan ‘Crash Bang’ Taylor faces ‘Rockin’ Robin Deakin, popular Enfield Light-Heavyweight Andreas Evangelou takes on Robert Studzinski and there’s a debut for Canning Town Cruiserweight Wadi Camacho against Moses Matovu.
