Devine to face Day for title at York Hall
The 27-year-old was due to fight Floyd Moore for the title earlier in the year, but that bout was postponed when Moore withdrew after suffering a hand injury.
Devine’s last ring outing came in June when he beat Vitalijs Usovs over in Ireland, just his second fight this year, after a surprise defeat on points to Ismail Anwar at York Hall a few weeks beforehand.
