Jamie Kavanagh claims victory over Antonio Joao Bento will give him a clear path toward a coveted World title shot.

‘The Nuisance’ fights for the vacant WBO European title on the Clash of the Clans card on Saturday.

Victory will give him a top 15 World ranking and thus make him eligible for the winner of Terry Flanagan and Derry Matthews WBO lightweight World title fight.

The 25 year old doesn’t envision a shot straight away -Tom Stalker has been muted as a potential future foe, but believes victory, which he is confident of getting, will create a clear path toward the ultimate goal.

Speaking to Irish-boxing.com Kavanagh also discussed fighting in Dublin for the second time, effectively topping the bill and the lightweight division.
