CLACTON boxer Justin Johnson has a new date for his first professional fight.
The 32-year-old, who has graduated from the unlicensed International Boxing Association circuit, was due to fight in Tower Hamlets on November 14.
However, it has now been cancelled and rescheduled for December 4, in Camden.
Johnson’s opponent in the super middleweight bout is yet to be confirmed.
However, he has revealed that whoever he is up against, he has extra motivation to win – for the sake of his son, Leon.
The four-year-old has cerebral palsy and any money raised will be used to support and care for him.
