EBU lightweight champion Emiliano Marsili (31-0-1) will make his mandatory defense against Edis Tatli (23-1) at the Ice Hall in Helsinki, Finland on April 24. The involved parties reached an agreement earlier today (March 16) and thus avoided purse bids. The show is promoted by Mennea OY.
Tatli´s sole loss came when he was in against WBA champion Richar Abril last year. For Marsili this is the fifth defence of the title he won in 2013 by stopping Luca Giacon in two.
