Lee’s World title defence will top a massive Manchester world title triple header

Andy Lee and Billy Joe Saunders will headline a massive triple world title bill in Manchester on October 10.

Lee was set to put his WBO on middleweight title on the line against the English fighter in Thomond Park on September 17 only for virus to force the Limerick man to postpone the massive clash.

However, the clash will now top an eye-catching if not Irish packed card at Manchester Arena.

Former Stephen Ormond foe Terry Flanagan will make the first defence of his WBO lightweight World title against number one contender Diego Magdaleno.

Liverpool’s Liam Smith rounds of the World title treble and will challenge for his first world championship against European champion Michel Soro.

BoxNation will televise the live event which will also feature interim WBA lightweight champion Derry Mathews putting his belt on the line for the first time.
