Junior middleweight contender Vanes Martirosyan is wasting no time in hunting down another opportunity. Vanes has advised BoxingScene.com that he wants to replace the injured Willie Nelson, who on Monday withdrew from a scheduled middleweight fight with Matthew Macklin (29-5, 20KOs).

Macklin-Nelson was scheduled for the HBO televised date of December 7th from the Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City. The main event features a super bantamweight clash between WBA/WBO champion Guillermo Rigondeaux and top challenger Joseph Agbeko. Top Rank, who promote Vanes, is the lead promoter of the show.

Fair play to the lad.

It's amazing what a loss will do to change a fighters attitude.

I hop Bob Arum gives me another chance

Wow, he's right on the verge of being dropped by TR and knows it. Must feel like ****.

[PittyPat]

Can't fault the lad's spirit. He lost his "0" and is still raring to Go.

Good fight if it's made, but I'd root for Macklin.

If Bob really is about to drop him, I see no problem with him letting Vanes fight

This..... might as well let him go against Macklin and if he wins keep him obviously and if he loses well you have nothing to lose.


Although I don't know if Macklin fancies Vanes on short notice?
