CHATHAM boxer Johnny Armour will get a belated Christmas present this year - a chance to regain his WBU bantamweight title.

Armour has been promised a chance to recapture the title against the man who relieved him of his belt, Australian Nathan Sting, who so comprehensively beat him to win the title back in July.

The rematch has been pencilled in for early January.

A FULL INTERVIEW WITH ARMOUR WILL APPEAR IN FRIDAY'S MEDWAY MESSENGER
