John Simpson has been offered a shot at the WBU Featherweight title currently held by Derry Matthews.
The 23 year old from Liverpool makes his first defence of his WBU belt at the Liverpool Olympia on the 24th of February and is keen to face Simpson. Although not recognised as one of the big four world titles, John Simpson would have to give up his British title if he won the fight.
“John Simpson did great beating Morris and deserves a shot at the title,” Derry told icliverpool, “but he may have other things in mind so we’ll have to see whether he fancies it or not.”
