It'll be Manxman's first test since becoming WBC champion

Isle of Man boxer and WBC champion Sam Rennie has found it who he'll face in his next fight in August.

It's been confirmed he'll take on George Lumoly at Metro City, Northbridge in Australia on Friday, 29 August in an international super featherweight contest.

Former New Horizon Boxing Club member Rennie will come into this latest test off of the back of being crowned WBC Australasia Silver Super Featherweight champion last month.

Since turning professional in the sport he currently has an undefeated record with victories in all four pro bouts to date.

However, he faces an experienced figure in Lumoly who has 15 career wins so far, 11 of which have been by way of knockout.

The Indonesian's record also includes 12 defeats and one draw.
