Scottish boxer Alex Arthur faces Koba Gogoladze
Edinburgh super featherweight boxer Alex Arthur has confirmed a WBO interim title fight against Koba Gogoladze in the Welsh capital of Cardiff this summer.
Alex Arthur, 28, will meet southpaw opponent Koba Gogoladze at the Cardiff International Arena on 7 July.
Although Koba Gogoladze, 34, managed to defeat current British champion Carl Johanneson four years ago he has never fought for a world title.
Earlier this year Alex Arthur injured his elbow whilst training and was forced to pull out of a title bout against Alexander Hrulev in March.
Boxing promoter Frank Warren said he is hoping to see Alex Arthur win a world title in the near future and he said:
"There's already been talk of fights between the likes of Kevin Mitchell and Arthur, Amir Khan and Graham Earl, Nicky Cook and Dery Matthews. I want to make that talk a reality."
