Junior lightweight Tevin Farmer will now face Daulis Prescott on August 8, Lou DiBella told BoxingScene.com.

In his last bout on April 17, Farmer won a one-sided eight round decision over Angel Luna in Uncasville, Conn.

Prescott (30-2, 22 KOs) has won his last four bouts in a row, all against mediocre competition, since being stopped in the seventh round by Nicholas Walters in December of 2012.

Prescott is the younger brother of former contender Breidis Prescott.
