PAUL INGLE has found the perfect sparring
partner for his April 10 WBO featherweight
title challenge against Naseem Hamed in
Manchester.
Panix Promotions have signed former world
amateur champion (1991) KIRKOR KIRKOROV,
a flashy southpaw from Bulgaria, who will be
helping Ingle prepare at Lennox Lewis'
training camp in the Poconos. Kirkorov,

AS expected, newly-crowned
British middleweight champion
Howard Eastman
proved too powerful for
Sheffield's brave Jason
Barker, finally winning
through in the sixth of their scheduled
non-title eight-round battle at
Lewisham Theatre.

BRITISH featherweight champion Jon Jo Irwin
wants a piece of the action... even if it means giving
up his treasured national championship.
Alex Moon, of course, has ideas of his own about
Irwin's ability to hold on to it when they meet at Newcastle
Arena.
Irwin, 29, feels he has more than paid his dues - this is
his 13th consecutive 12-round fight of one description or
another - and a 'world' title fight would be a fair reward.
"When I beat Moon I may vacate - and concentrate on
getting a 'world' title shot," he said. "I am the dark horse
of the division..."

DOMESTIC supremacy is the
obvious incentive when
unbeaten Welsh southpaw
Joe Calzaghe defends his
WBO super-middleweight
title against former WBC
holder Robin Reid at Newcastle's
Telewest Arena tomorrow
(Saturday, February 13), but there
could be an even bigger reward going
for the winner: the No. 1 spot in the
division.
