BOXING

Glenrothes profession­al cruiserwei­ght boxer Nathan Leevers will face a vastly more experience­d opponent when he has his second profession­al contest in Inverness on Friday. Facing Leevers, who won his only profession­al bout so far, at the Drumossie Hotel is Latvian Edgar Sneidza.

Sneidza’s last contest was a points loss to Billy Hutchinson who recently lost in his attempt to win the British light-heavyweigh­t crown.

The Latvian has also gone the distance with British light-heavy champion Felix Cash and highly-rated Hosea Burton.

Leevers’ manager Stevie McGuire said: “We’re looking forward to what will be a good test for Nathan. We’ll see where we go after this contest. It’s one step at a time.”
