Your fight-size boxing update:
- Daniel Dubois will face Ebenezer Tettehn for the Commonwealth heavyweight title at a Frank Warren-promoted show on September 27 at Royal Albert Hall in London. Newly crowned WBO Female flyweight champion Nicola Adams will fight on that card.
- Ryan Garcia admitted on Twitter that he was actually supposed to fight Romero Duno in September, but refused to do so because he wanted the fight to headline a card in November instead of being the co-main event of the unannounced September show. In a follow-up tweet, Garcia expressed frustration at promoter Golden Boy Promotions.
To all my fans, yes i was supposed to fight Romero Duno in sept, i decided to not go with that bc i wanted to fight him as main event in November and not be some co main event on a card that will be driven by me, I also elected to fight the guy that gave duno problems for sept!

The bottom line is, i deserve the right promotion for fights with the full time to promote and not be thrown into a fight and have my self do the whole promotion, knowing my fan base they will tune in no matter what but I deserve to have a full promotion fight with duno!
