Callum Smith takes on Frenchman tonight with a world title fight with Artur Beterbiev as the prize.
The former super-middleweight world champion’s WBC eliminator against former Olympic bronze medallist Bauderlique features on the undercard of the world heavyweight title clash between Anthony Joshua and Oleksandr Usyk.
It is the second time the former Archbishop Beck student has appeared on the support card for Joshua-Usyk and only the second occasion he has fought at light-heavyweight. He debuted at the weight with a second-round knockout of Gilbert Castillo ahead of Joshua and Usyk’s first meeting in September.
