Vicarage Road could be the venue for a potential British featherweight title fight featuring Reece Bellotti, with Watford open to hosting the event.
While the Watford Observer understands no discussions have taken place between Bellotti’s camp and the Premier League club, the Hornets would consider staging what would be the biggest fight of Bellotti’s career.
The South Oxhey fighter secured an impressive sixth round stoppage against Ben Jones to successfully defend his commonwealth title for the first time on Saturday.
His triumph had promoter Eddie Hearn talking up a British title shot and he sees no reason it couldn’t take place in Bellotti’s own backyard.
