Baltimore, MD light heavyweight Travis "Seveer" Reeves will have a little more time to prepare for his WBO Inter-Continental Light Heavyweight title opportunity in England. The card, which was originally scheduled for February 23rd, will now be on Saturday, March 8th. The card will also be in a new location -- the legendary Royal Albert Hall in Kensington, England.
Reeves will challenge the champion, undefeated Anthony Yarde of Ilford, Essex, England in this bout. Reeves (17-3-2, seven KO's) is coming off a 10-round unanimous decision win over Lanell Bellows on January 17th in Las Vegas, NV. Reeves is a former USBO Light Heavyweight and Maryland State Cruiserweight champion who also challenged for the IBO World Light Heavyweight championship.
Yarde (17-0, 16 KO's) will be making the fifth defense of his WBO Inter-Continental championship that he won in September of 2017. Yarde last fought on October 20th and scored a fourth-round TKO over Walter Gabriel Sequeira in Brentwood, England. Yarde is also the WBO European titleholder.
