Boxing: Sheffield champion Liam Cameron his eyes on Jason Welborn's title
Promoter Dennis Hobson is hoping to organise a ‘winner takes all’ clash between Sheffield’s reigning middleweight champion and Jason Welborn, who has just won the Lonsdale belt.
Midlander Welborn, upset the odds by beating former British kingpin Tommy Langford earlier this month. “I think Tommy and his team thought it was just going to be a routine defence against Welborn” said Hobson.

“Liam stopped Tommy in the amateurs and they haven’t wanted to know.
“They’ve done that defence against Welborn thinking they’ll then vacate and move on to the European title but obviously he’s come unstuck.
“I think Welborn is similar to Liam in that he’s had some losses but those experiences have improved him.

“We’d be happy to fight either, but Welborn would be great and we could put both titles on the line.
“It would be a great fight.
“We’re up for it and it’s just a case of getting around a table with people being sensible, and hopefully we can get it on and have another great night of boxing” added the promoter.
