Dmitriy Salita Calls On Theophane To Prepare For Kotelnik

Ashley "Treasure" Theophane has been back in London for just 2 weeks since his career best win against former WBO Champion Demarcus "Chop Chop" Corley. Corley had faced Boxing superstars Floyd Mayweather Jr, Zab Judah and Miguel Cotto so Ashley faced someone who had fought at the highest level and came through in flying colors.

WBA NO.3 Dmitriy Salita who is fighting for a World Title on the Roy Jones Jr vs Joe Calzaghe show at Madison Square Garden has asked Treasure to help him prepare for his challenge against Andreas Kotelnik, who beat Welsh fighter Gavin Rees earlier this year.

So Ashley will be flying on Friday to help his friend prepare up in Poconos Mountains, where various World Champions have prepared, Lennox Lewis to one that comes to mind.

Treasure said "My boy Dmitriy is fighting for a World Title and I take that very seriously that he has trust in me, that I can help get him in shape and ready to take Kotelnik's WBA Title from him.

I may even get on the show as I am currently talking to Square Ring about a fight on November 8th, so fingers crossed".
