JOE Hughes will make the second defence of his English super-lightweight title live on BoxNation.
The Malmesbury champion will face Jack Catterall in a contest which will also be a final eliminator to face British champion Tyrone Nurse.
The British Boxing Board of Control confirmed this afternoon that Catterall’s promoter Frank Warren had won the purse bid for the clash.
Hughes will discover when and where the bout with Catterall, who sparred Floyd Mayweather Jr in the build up to his mega-fight with Manny Pacquiao last spring, will take place within the next fortnight.
