[msagrain]

Jon Thaxton will make the second defence of his British lightweight title against Dave Stewart at the York Hall in Bethnal Green on 5 October.
Norwich's Thaxton said: "Dave is proven top operator so I'm going to have to be on top of my game to stay champion."

Promoter Mick Hennessy said: "Jon and Dave have had plenty of notice for it, so both will be in excellent shape and I expect a great encounter.

Thaxton won the title last December with a points win over Lee Meager.

He saw off Stoke's Scott Lawton in seven rounds in March to retain his crown
