The Universe of Leather Boxing Association has announced the fight cards for October, and there are a couple of very exciting matches.
PITTSBURGH - Forbes Field hosts what promises to be an intriguing contest between #3 ranked Frank Slavin 23-3-0 (16) and undefeated, highly regarded #20 Chet Shandel 22-0-1 (12). Slavin had the choice between a couple of other matches, but chose Shandel, who is fresh off of an impressive victory over Duncan McDonald last month.
On the undercard, undefeated top contender #15 Dominic McCaffrey 23-0-0 (10) continues his quest to crack the top 10 as he duels #58 Jack Welsh 20-2-0 (2); crowd favorite #19 Jake Kilrain 20-3-1 (2) faces #23 Fred Crossley 19-3-0 (10); and #30 Tom Allen 22-1-0 (12) squares off against #38 Al Greenfield 18-4-1 (8).
VANCOUVER - Vancouver's Exhibition Gardens welcomes #2 in the world John C. Heenan 26-1-0 (23) in a feature match against #61 Sailor Charles Brown 19-3-0 (3).
