25-year-old Merah (8-1-3, 1 KO) will take on
Georgian challenger Paata Aduashvili (7-1-2, 3
KOs) on a show promoted by Robert Pantigny and the
Douai Boxing Club.
Nicknamed “Parigo”, the reigning champion won the
UBO title this past March when he scored a
unanimous decision over tough German campaigner
Steve Kroekel.
Merah stayed busy with a non title fight victory
(UD8) over Hungarian Istvan Orsos in June, and has
since been focusing on the task at hand in
November.
In Southpaw Aduasvili he will be facing an
opponent who is entering his first professional
championship fight.
Aduashvili is coming off two convincing victories
after suffering his first loss to Orial Kolaj in
Rome this summer.
