JERKIC IMPRESSES IN ROUND 3 KNOCK-OUT

Coal Point boxer Rocky Jerkic has high profile opponents lining up to challenge him, following his impressive third round knock out of Adrian Campbell on Friday night.

Campbell had never been taken down in 30 previous fights.

Jerkic was due to travel to the US following the bout, but is now likely to step back into the ring in Newcastle in around two months.

Manny Siaca, a former world champion from Puerto Rico, who’s gone toe to toe with both Danny Green and Anthony Mundine, has offered to fight the 27-year-old for his WBA Asia junior middleweight title.
