Previously unbeaten Kerry Hope has lost his last two fights
|
Calzaghe Promotions have postponed their second boxing bill as one of the top fighters is ill.
Kerry Hope was due to meet English journeyman Tony Randell for a light-middleweight bout at Merthyr Tydfil's Rhydycar leisure centre on Saturday.
But Hope has been forced to withdraw due to a chest infection and the show has been rescheduled to 24 May.
Hope was due to fight Taz Jones for a Welsh title rematch but Jones pulled-out and Randell was a late replacement.
The 27-year-old - who was stopped by Jones in the fourth round of their Welsh title tilt in February - was to be the main event in his home town of Merthyr against a fighter that has lost 20 of his 30 professional bouts.
But Hope's illness has caused Calzaghe Promotions - run by former two-weight world champion Joe Calzaghe and his father Enzo - to delay their second show.
