So it came as no surprise that when promoter Tommy Jacobs offered him to fight tough Nicaraguan Michael Isaac Carreo on the undercard of Jacobs\u2019 World Boxing Union (WBU) & World Boxing Foundation (WBF) World unification battle with Nathan Decastro on the 22nd June, Porter jumped at the opportunity, even after Jacobs had added that Carreo had previously fought for both the International Boxing Organization (IBO) and World Boxing Council (WBC) Youth World Championships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Speaking earlier Porter explained why he accepted another tough challenge;<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOn June 22nd I\u2019ll be fighting my hardest opponent to date, that\u2019s for sure. Michael has fought for both the WBC and IBO youth world titles along with other titles. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cYes it\u2019s another seriously tough fight and I just can\u2019t wait to show people what I\u2019m really about <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI have sold myself short in all my other fights by not making weight properly, it\u2019s going to be different this time and everyone will see the best Dean Porter. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWhen I come out of this fight victorious I\u2019m hoping to push for a title by the end of the year, but first have to get past Michael.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAs I said I haven\u2019t had the best start to my boxing career but that is all changing from this fight on, I would like to say a massive thank you to the team I have around me, I couldn\u2019t ask for anyone better.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
