Jamie Moore To Defend Crown Against Jimmy Colas, 7/24
By Terence Dooley
Salford’s European light-middleweight champion Jamie Moore will defend his title in Leigh on July the 24th against former European Union champion Jimmy Colas.
Moore will be looking to improve on his recent WBC rankings boost; Jamie sits at number three in their ratings. Colas will be Moore’s third opponent this year. Too often undone by inactivity, Moore is reaping the vein of good form that fighting frequently brings, as promoter Frank Maloney seeks to push his man into the world title picture.
Moore is coming off stoppage wins over Roman Dzuman and Michele Piccirillo. Jamie told The Salford Advertiser that, "I am up to number three in the WBC rankings, and with my promoter Frank Maloney lobbying the WBC to make me the mandatory challenger, I think that I am one or two wins away from getting a world title shot…I've seen Colas fight a few times. He's certainly no mug but I am very confident of winning."
Colas took Sergey Dzinziruk the distance, and also extended Lukas Konecny. Moore will be looking for another exclamation win.
