Nicholas Walters return fight off due to illness

Former featherweight champion Nicholas Walters bout scheduled for this Saturday against Arturo Santos is off due to Walters coming down with an illness, according to Dan Rafael of espn.com.

“Walters is off the show. He called us and told us he had a 101 degree temperature and was sick all weekend,” Top Rank’s Carl Moretti said. “He said his family has been sick and he caught it. He didn’t get better over the weekend and he sounded like a guy who had a 101 degree temperature, so I told him to do what you have to do to get better and we’ll reschedule for later in the year.”
