'Summer Showdown 1’ postponed


Due to minor injuries to key fighters on the bill, ‘Summer Showdown 1’ has been postponed.

The show was originally scheduled for July 24, but Relentless Promotions and Fighting Chance have made the decision to re-schedule.

Travis Dickinson was set to headline the bill, as he was looking to get back on track after suffering a first round stoppage defeat to Mustafa Chadlioui in April.

Speaking on the postponement, Fighting Chance director Lewis Pendleton said:

“Whilst we are disappointed to have to postpone the show, collectively myself, Ron Rowe, Steve Wraith and Danny Cox are all in agreement that postponing the show is the best option.

“Injuries are inevitable in boxing and it’s a shame that it has caused the show to be postponed. But with the injuries sustained we didn’t feel it was right to go-ahead, as the paying public deserve a card of high caliber.

"Those who bought tickets from the fighters can either use their ticket on the re-scheduled show, or alternatively can get a refund from the point of purchase."

An additional show was also planned for September 18, with Danny Wall making his highly anticipated professional debut. However, the postponement of 'Summer Showdown 1' has caused a knock-on effect, meaning the show in September will also have to be re-scheduled.

Further information will be available in due course and Fighting Chance would like to apologise for any inconvenience caused.
