Devine out of York Hall clash but Adams fights on
LUTON lightweight Michael Devine has been forced to pull out of his scheduled fight against Youssef Al Hamidi on Saturday at York Hall, Bethnal Green.
The 22-year-old had been looking for a seventh win out of eight pro bouts, but a broken nose sustained in sparring last Tuesday has ruled him out.
Meanwhile, Dunstable middleweight Mark Adams, 26, will be looking for his second pro win when he takes on 33-year-old Billy Smith from Worcester on the same bill.
Smith has a record of 12 wins, two draws and 106 losses, with his last victory in February 2008.
