Last minute opponent change for Scragg

Wolverhampton's only female professional boxer Lyndsey Scragg will now face Paignton's Christine Sheargold after original opponent Uganda's Agnes Andonga had to pull out due to visa problems.

The fight which will headline tonight's First Team show at Wolverhampton Civic Hall will still be for the vacant GBC Super-Featherweight crown thus making it the first ever time a women's 'world' title has been contested in Wolverhampton.
