Brian Rose: 'I will be ready for Demetrius Andrade bout'

British light-middleweight Brian Rose reveals that a deal has been agreed for him to face WBO champion Demetruis Andrade in America.

British light-middleweight Brian Rose has revealed that his world title clash with American Demetrius Andrade will take place in the United States.

Rose earned an opportunity to compete against the WBO champion after he defeated Javier Maciel in October, and the Blackpool boxer has admitted that he has already begun training for the encounter, which could take place in May.

The 29-year-old told Boxing News: "There's a deal been done. It's definitely going to be in America but we're not sure about the venue and we're not sure about the date.

"I'm in training now so as soon as we get a date, I'll hit it hard."

Rose has 25 wins from 27 fights, while Andrade is unbeaten in 20 professional encounters since representing his country at the Beijing Olympics in 2008.
