Australian-based boxing journalist Anthony Cocks has been covering the sport for over 15 years for various print and online publications. American promoter Bob Arum has issued an open invitation to international fighters ahead of boxing’s return in Las Vegas next week. “A lot of these fights that we’re doing, we don’t have available to us fighters who are residing outside of the United States,” the 88-year-old Top Rank boss told Mauricio Sulaiman on WBC Talks. I’ve got all these great UK fighters that I can’t bring in because of the travel ban.”Some international fighters are already in the country. WBA ‘regular’ super flyweight champion Andrew will defend his title against Joshua Franco at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas on June 23.
