IBF Bantamweight champion Jamie McDonnell will now take on Javier Chacon this Saturday in Liverpool, England according to Dan Rafael of espn.com.
McDonnell was due to defend his secondary 118-pound world title against Walberto Ramos at the Echo Arena in Liverpool, England, on Saturday on the undercard of the Nathan Cleverly-Tony Bellew rematch. However, Matchroom Boxing promoter Eddie Hearn announced that Ramos (23-6-2, 16 KOs), 33, of Colombia, was dropped from the fight due to complications getting a visa and was replaced by Chacon (20-2, 5 KOs), 33, of Argentina.
