World ranked light heavyweight Elvir “Kosovo Kid” Muriqi (35-4-0, 22 KO’s) will make his european debut on January 31 in Jersey island against the former IBF light-heavyweight champion Clinton Woods (41-4-1, 24 KO’s).
World ranked light heavyweight Elvir “Kosovo Kid” Muriqi (35-4-0, 22 KO’s) will make his european debut on January 31 in Jersey island against the former IBF light-heavyweight champion Clinton Woods (41-4-1, 24 KO’s).
This bout will come exactly after 1 year since the 28-year-old Albanian had his last fight against Jameel Wilson, which he won with a TKO in the fourth round.
The fight is billed as the IBF light heavyweight world title eliminator and will be promoted by Dennis Hobson.
A win over the highly-rated Woods would put Muriqi in line for the IBF title probably against American Tavoris Cloud, as current champion Chad Dawson is expected to relinquish his title to chase a fight against Joe Calzaghe or Bernard Hopkins.
