WBO cruiserweight champion Lawrence Okolie will put his title and undefeated record on the line in his hometown of London this Sunday.
The 29-year-old (17-0) will defend his belt against Polish contender Michal Cieslak (21-1) in a main-event bout at the O2 Arena, which is set to host 10,000 fans despite sustaining damage to its roof amid Storm Eunice last week.
The London crowd will also see Galal Yafai compete at professional level for the first time, following his gold-medal triumph for Team GB at last summer’s Tokyo Olympics.
Campbell Hatton, son of former world champion Ricky Hatton, will also be in action.
