Coming back from loss, Stewart to meet Allotey

Press Release: Dave Stewart can take a step towards another title shot when he appears in the chief support contest on the Hennessy Sports ‘Outright’ promotion at the Nottingham Arena on November 24, 2006.  Stewart will meet tough Kpakpo Allotey, from Ghana, in an eliminator for the Commonwealth lightweight title on the undercard of Carl Froch’s defence of his British super middleweight title against long-term rival Tony Dodson. It will be his first outing since losing to Lee Meager earlier this year in a breathtaking affair for the British championship that has been nominated as one of the fights of the year. Victory could see him line up an all-Scottish Commonwealth showdown against current holder Willie Limmond. Stewart said, "Titles are what I am after. This is a great opportunity for me to go a long way towards getting a fight with Willie. I know Willie, he is a great guy and I have got a lot of respect for him, but I would fancy my chances.” The ‘Outright’ event featuring Carl Froch and Dave Stewart takes place at the Nottingham Arena on November 24th.
