Media Release: Dominic Vea spars with Danny Green ahead of both boxers’ April bouts

This week and next, Australia’s No. 2 ranked cruiserweight boxer Dominic Vea takes his preparation for his next fight up a notch, when he spars Australia’s No.1 ranked cruiserweight, Danny Green.

28 year-old Vea (12-1, 10KO), the current OPBF and WBO Oriental cruiserweight title-holder, faces Anthony McCracken (11-4, 4KO) on 8 April at Sydney’s Star City Casino, while Danny Green (28-3, 25KO) defends his IBO Cruiserweight title against Puerto Rican Manny Siaca (22-6, 19KO) on 14 April in Perth.

Last year, Green selected Vea as a sparring partner in preparation for his IBO title bout with Julio Cesar Dominguez. Now Australia’s top cruiserweights both stand to gain from giving each other the best preparation possible.

Dominic says, “Sparring with Danny is great training heading into this fight and will fine-tune my preparation. Danny is a recognised champion who will test me over the next fortnight. It is great that with big fights just around the corner, both of us can gain from these sessions.”
