Scott Quigg to face Yoandris Salinas for WBA super-bantamweight title

Bury-born boxer Scott Quigg will face Cuba's Yoandris Salinas for the WBA super-bantamweight title at Manchester's Phones 4u Arena on September 28.

Bury-born boxer Scott Quigg has secured his first world title fight.

The 24-year-old will face Cuba's Yoandris Salinas for the WBA super-bantamweight title at Manchester's Phones 4u Arena on September 28.

"It's a dream come true that my first world title fight will be in Manchester," Quigg told reporters.

"It'll be a massive boost to have my fans there and, with Haye and Fury fighting too, it's a huge night to be involved in and a great stage to land a world title.

"I've worked so hard to get here and I'm going to grab this title with both hands."

Unbeaten Quigg claimed his 26th career win with a clinical third-round stoppage of William Prado in June.
