WBA Orders Zeuge vs. Ekpo, Denies Paul Smith Request

The Liverpool super-middleweight, who has fought for global honours twice and been in the ring with pound-for-pound star Andre Ward, was last in action last September, exclusively live on Sky Sports Box Office. Smith stopped Daniel Regi at the O2 Arena, as part of the undercard to Gennady Golovkin’s IBF, WBA Super, WBC and IBO world middleweight title defence against IBF welterweight king Kell Brook.
