The Leeds Warrior will fight in his home city for the second time in 2022 this weekend as he takes on Alberto Lopez at the First Direct Arena.
He will defend his IBF featherweight world title in front of a home crowd having beaten Kiko Martinez to regain his title at the same venue back in March. The event will include a long cast of undercard fighters, with Ebanie Bridges, also known as the Blonde Bomber, fighting in front of a Leeds crowd which has become a home for the Australian.
It will be a unique event, with the boxing beginning at 1:30pm before taking a break for England's World Cup quarter final against Frrance which will be shown live on the big screen before the boxing resumes at 9pm. This will be subject to the match going to extra time and penalties.
