    Dickson gets new opponent for tomorrow’s WBO Global title bout

    Jacob Dickson’s opponent for tomorrow’s WBO Global cruiserweight title bout Lenar Perez will be replaced by undefeated Venezuelan Albert Ramirez.            

    This was exclusively confirmed to Joy Sports by Coach Carl Lokko, Dickson’s trainer. According to him, Perez was unable to secure a visa to travel to Deauville, France.                           

    “We were informed about this last night and the new opponent is a southpaw. We were prepared for an orthodox opponent, ” Coach Lokko confirmed.

    Dickson’s camp was already dealing with not having their bags on arrival in Deauville, France. A situation they were managing so it could have a minimum effect on the boxer’s output tonight.
