Looking to guard against inactivity following the biggest win of his career, Dejan Zlaticanin is preparing for a sudden ring return. The unbeaten lightweight revealed that he will fight on October 25 in Montenegro, facing Ecuador’s Alex Bone in a scheduled 10-round affair.
The bout marks his first ring appearance since scoring what on paper was considered a major upset over former lightweight titlist Ricky Burns on the road in Scotland this past June.
