Jamie Cox to flood the Oasis for return to the ring.
Swindon middleweight Jamie Cox will make his long-awaited return to professional boxing at the Oasis this summer.
The former Commonwealth gold medallist revealed at a press conference today held at Fratello’s Restaurant that he will make a comeback with big fight night, which takes place on 15 June at Swindon’s Oasis.
It will be Cox’s first bout since suffering a horror injury to his left hand when beating Obodai Sai to claim the Commonwealth light-middleweight title in September 2011, a belt he was subsequently forced to relinguish.
An acrimonious split with promoter Frank Warren also ensued in the eighteen months since, during which Cox feared he may never fight again.
But under new manager PJ Rowson, a new trainer and with a new local sponsor, FN Foods, the undefeated Swindon south paw feels his time has come again.
Also on the bill will be Trowbridge fighter Nick Blackwell and Gareth Heard with others to be confirmed.
