Jennings gets new date for Brook fight
6:00am Saturday 12th December 2009 in
CHORLEY fighter Michael Jennings' long-awaited British title bout with Kell Brook has been rescheduled to take place in London on February 13.
Jennings, who took on Miguel Cotto for the world title earlier this year, had been due to face Brook in October but his opponent had to pull out because of a virus.
The bout was due to rescheduled for the undercard of Amir Khan's world title fight with Dimitriy Salita last week but that plan was scuppered when Jennings suffered a hand injury in his victory over Laszlo Komjathi.
But it has now been announced that Jennings will fight Brook on February 13, at a London venue still to be confirmed, as the chief support to Danny Williams' British heavyweight title bout against Sam Sexton.
