Mr. Camille Estephan of Eye of the Tiger had announced he could stage the vacant WBC International Middleweight Championship next March 16th at the Montreal Casino (Canada). Steven Butler (Canada aged 23 / 26-1-1, 23) Nick Brinson (USA aged 31 / 19-4-2, 9 / former WBC International Silver champion). The bout could be moved to next April. More details to come soon.
Why the title is now vacant:
Mark Hefforn (GB) was stopped in ten rounds by Liam Williams last December 22 in Manchester. At stake only the British title. The WBC International title was not at stake. In compliance with the WBC governing rules, Mark Hefforn was automatically stripped of his WBC International Middleweight title.
