Having previously showcased his talent's at the Wishaw Sports Centre, with a convincing KO over the experienced Laszlo Komjathi ,Cork based Georgian Levan Ghvamichava will be looking for a similar outcome when he makes his return on October 28th .

He further adds about Levan's amateur pedigree “Levan has over 250 amateur contests fought in the 03,05 and 07 World Senior Championships and beat 2 time world amateur champion Rosniel Iglesias in his last amateur contest so he is ready to fight Lauri even though he is just 5-0”

Given that this is his fifth fight,it is fair to say this is a big step up for the Georgian .Acknowledging the fact,Hyde reveals his faith in his fighter “There is no doubt that this is a very big step up for Levan, but his work in the gym and the way he has fought in his 5 contests shows me that its time to pull the trigger. It will be Levan's first 8 round fight and this will be his first major training camp. My prediction is that it will be a thrilling contest and I am very confident that Levan will put on the performance of his life for the Scottish fight fans.”

He adds “Levan is very excited about returning to Wishaw where he stopped Lazslo Komjathi in round 2. Komjathi went the distance with Amir Khan and Andriy Kotelnik”
