Sam Maxwell sends blunt message to Dalton Smith after Sheffield British title showdown confirmed

Sam Maxwell is relishing the prospect of hearing 'AND THE NEW' after landing a British title showdown against Dalton Smith.

Maxwell (17-1, 11 KOs) will take on Smith at the Utilita Arena in Sheffield on Saturday, July 1, with the 34-year-old's super-lightweight Commonwealth crown also on the line.

A former WBO European and British Champion at 140lbs, Maxwell will be looking to reclaim the British title after outpointing Akeem Ennis-Brown to win the famous old belt, along with the Commonwealth crown, in Birmingham back in August 2021.
