Fight fans can look forward to an all-British heavyweight showdown at Wembley on Saturday as Daniel Dubois makes the first defence of his IBF world title against former world champion Anthony Joshua.
Dubois won the interim title earlier this year but was elevated to full champion when Oleksandr Usyk vacated the IBF belt in June.
Joshua has already held the belt in one of his two unified stints as world champion and he has promised another explosive finish on home soil.

Joshua Ready To Make History
Despite changing the landscape of British boxing since making his debut, Londoner Anthony Joshua feels disrespected in the build-up to Saturday's big fight and he could make a statement in the ring.
The 34-year-old is approaching the end of his career and has seen it all in the sport, but even he may be blown away by the expected 96,000-strong crowd at the national stadium.
It is tough to see the fight going the distance, especially when looking at the records of both men.
All but one of Dubois' 23 professional fights have finished before the final bell, while 25 of Joshua's 28 wins and each of his three defeats have come via stoppage.
Joshua has rebuilt his reputation in the last couple of years and his trainer Ben Davison must take credit for helping him rediscover his ruthless killer instinct.
Having greater experience of such a big occasion will also be in AJ's favour on Saturday, when IBF champion Dubois could find it all a bit too much.
The 27-year-old has the tools required to be a world champion but he will do well to handle a partisan capital crowd who will be desperate to see the face of British boxing win another world title.

No Need For Joshua To Rush Attack
Joshua was known for his explosive power in the formative years of his professional career.
However, defeat to Andy Ruiz Jr in 2019 saw him change his style to try and attempt to use his height and reach more, an approach which failed in both of his defeats with Ukrainian star Usyk.
Joshua has won his last four fights via stoppage but he will be wary to not take any undue risks against Dubois.
Dynamite is known as one of the biggest punchers in the heavyweight division, so Joshua's trainer Davison will have no doubt devised a strategy that helps his fighter wear down Dubois over time.
If Joshua sees an opening then he will no doubt try to take it, but Dubois will also be happy to take this fight into the later rounds, where Joshua usually tires due to his size.
However, AJ invariably saves his best for in front of huge crowds and the veteran could record a late stoppage on a memorable night for British boxing.
