03.02.08 Mick Jennings opponent confirmed

WBU 'world champion' Welterweight Michael Jennings (32-1, 15ko) will be fighting George Ungiadze (12-5, 4ko) on Saturday at the Bolton Arena as support to Amir Khan's WBO challenge.

Frenchman Franc Harroche Horta (13-6, 2ko) was due to be Michael's opponent but withdrew from the fight.

Jennings who was once tipped for a crack at Antonio Margarito's WBO title a couple of years ago and has also rumoured to be trying to get a crack at new champion, Carlos Quintana.

Jennings, a slick boxer with heart has recently beaten the likes of Takaloo and Ross Minter in Wales and London respectively and this Bolton outing gives his loyal fans a chance to see him fight locally.

Let's hope that Michael gets better challenges in the future than Ungiadze, whilst the Chorley fighter is in his prime.
