This has been confirmed by Floyd Trumpet Fight Productions, and Gancor Promotions on behalf of Dan, after Emilio Julio Julio from Columbia pulled out of the fight.

The show, which also featured two female world title bouts, will be promoted in cooperation with Unified Boxing Promotions.  
 

A pro since 2004, Dan has compiled an impressive 28-1 (15) record. His sole defeat came to fellow undefeated contender Selcuk Aydin last year, when Dan travelled to Turkey and dropped a controversial split decision.

Since then he has scored decisive victories in Canada over Argentinean Andres Pablo Villafane and former world champion Steve Forbes.
 

Other impressive victories on Dan’s ledger includes former world champion Raul Balbi and contenders Paul Delgado, Christopher Henry, Jorge Daniel Miranda and Walter Acosta.

He held NABA and WBC Continental Americas titles at Light Welterweight before moving up to 147 Lbs. to fight Aydin for the WBC Silver championship.

Besides the UBO title, Jo Jo Dan vs. Floyd Trumpet will also be for the vacant WBC Carribean Boxing Federation Welterweight title, and will be contested over ten rounds.

Trumpet, 16-8-2 (9), was first scheduled to fight Iwan Azore in March for the UBO title, but when the fight was postponed the opponent was changed to Columbian Emilio Julio Julio. With Julio out and Jo Jo Dan in, Trumpet is looking at an even bigger challenge against a man who has operated at world class level for years and only lost once.
