Posted: 22 Mar 2005, 19:15
Newly-crowned IBF light-heavyweight champion Clinton Woods is setting his sights on a summer rematch against Roy Jones in Sheffield.
Woods' management team are confident of landing Jones for a planned title defence in June.
The bout would give Woods the chance of revenge after he lost to Jones in Portland three years ago.
"I don't think they have any problems about coming over here," said Woods' manager Dennis Hobson.
"It would be a nice coup for us if we could get Jones over here and we have spoken about doing a deal.
"I would love to make that fight. He is a massive name and I really like Clinton's chances this time."
Jones has been considering his future in the sport after defeats to Antonio Tarver and Glen Johnson last year.
