MEDWAY kickboxer Itse Ayonmike will hope to win the English middleweight title at Rochester's Casino Rooms on Sunday when he takes on the champion Steve Russell. He was due to meet Russell for the vacant title in September but had to pull out due to an injury.

This will be Ayonmike's first fight since he deposed of a German opponent inside a round.

Also on the bill will be Medway fighters Paul Wiffen who takes on Darren Beeney (Northants), Leo Davis, who trains at Mensai's Gym, will take on James McCall (Norwich) and Declan Confrey will have his first fight against an, as yet, unnamed opponent.
