Woods gets home-town advantage

Woods was beaten by Glen Johnson in February
Sheffield's Clinton Woods will once again enjoy home advantage when he challenges for the light heavyweight world title for a fourth time.

Woods, who has come up short in his previous attempts, fights unbeaten American Rico Hoye in late February.

Promoters Fight Academy have won the purse bids for the IBF title bout.

And Woods is to dedicate the fight to friend Mark Brookes who was seriously injured two weeks ago fighting for the English light heavyweight title.
