Lev Jackson Targeting March Date

According to BoxRec, Lev Jackson is fighting in two days in Jamay, Mexico. Chalk it up to: Don't believe everything you read on the internet. When asked if he was fighting on January 24, the Vancouver-based lightweight responded, "Not to my knowledge," his tongue firmly in his cheek.

After a nearly two-year layoff, the 33-year-old Jackson has been active recently. He traveled to Mexico and scored a knockout in April and another in December to improve his record to 5-1-1 with 3 KOs. The all-action southpaw boxed a little more than usual in those two fights.

Jackson told The Jewish Boxing Blog that he's targeting a March date in Canada, but nothing's set yet. In the meantime, he's been in training. He recently sparred with prospect Isaiah Guy, who won his debut in November against an old Jackson foe, Elroy Fruto. Guy is also looking to fight in March. He's scheduled to face another old Jackson rival, Ely Avelar.
