‘Green Machine’ set for November Cameron outing
Danny Green and Shane Cameron are rumoured to be ready to
face each other in November and could have the IBO cruiserweight title on the
line as the body mull over stripping Antonio Tarver.
Tarver, 43, defeated Green in July 2011 convincingly to
claim the world strap, although failed a routine drugs test following a recent
draw with Lateef Kayode and is now set to lose his title outside of the ring
According to a report in Australian newspaper thewest.com.au, Green is now being
strongly linked to a shot at his old belt, with New Zeland’s ‘Mountain Warrior’
Shane Cameron a likely opponent for the contest.
34 year-old Cameron has yo-yoed between cruiserweight and
heavyweight throughout his career and is coming off a career-best win over
former world title challenger Monte Barrett in the summer.
The Auckland fighter scored a spectacular fourth round KO in
the clash at the Sky City Convention Centre on home soil and with all the belts at the top
division tied up in Europe, is thought to have no worries in moving back down
to 200lbs to fight Green.
