By Per Ake Persson

Veteran heavyweights Michael Grant (48-7) and Michael Sprott (42-28) headline a show at the MBS Arena in Potsdam on Saturday March 24.

Sprott replaces Kevin Johnson who´s been forced to pull out due to a cut eye. At stake is the vacant World Boxing Confederation title.

Grant has the chance to prove the loss to Lewis was a blip and he can eventually call himself world champion then

Michael Sprott WBC champ!

Sprott wins this comfortably...

I can’t believe a lot of people are still on the Michael Grant hype train. And it’s still growing.

When he was touted as the future American star of the Heavyweight division, maybe they actually meant two decades later.

Sprott wins this comfortably...

Agree 100% bro'

[Kassel]

Fight postponed - apparently - dunno why!

Nobody is hyping Michael Grant at this stage, not even his nan.

Nice win for sprott

[stujones]

The last time Sprott won was 2013, the last time Grant won was 2011 - quite evenly matched. I go for Grant cos I think his loses have come against a better standard and his problem chin won't be an issue against Sprott.

Is there BEEF?

I'm not watching if there isn't any BEEF.

This apparently is happening just so one of these guys can get a much needed win, and then commissions will look the other way when they lose their next 4 I guess.

That's the only reason I can think of for why this is even taking place.

Is there any point to this fight taking place?

Winner will likely enter WBA's top 15!!

Yes; Age Concern, Saga & Sanatogen will get some much needed exposure for their brands.

What hype train?

I don't even think Michael Grant's wife hypes him up anymore, let alone any boxing fans.
