TOP OF THE BILL –Â #BillamSmithRiakporhe

BOXXER FIGHT NIGHT LONDON –Â UNDERCARD
Isaac Chamberlain will face Jack Massey for the vacant European and Commonwealth Cruiserweight titles.  Chamberlain was set to challenge Michal Cieslak for the EBU belt. However, the Pole was forced to withdraw from their scheduled contest due to injury. Cieslak also chose to vacate his European title giving Cheshireâs Massey a golden opportunity to step in and fight Chamberlain for the vacant strap.
Ben Whittaker faces undefeated rival and press conference crasher Ezra Arenyeka for the WBA Gold light-heavyweight belt. Whitaker (7-0, 5 KOs) is back in the ring after two victories already this year including a sensational stoppage win over Khalid Gradia in early February. Whittaker has become a viral sensation after his matrix-like performance on the Buatsi-Azeez card. Clips of his flamboyant showboating generating millions of views and global interest on social media.  Tipped for superstardom, the Tokyo 2020 Olympic silver medallist will look to capitalise on his new-found attention by delivering another show-stealing performance.
19-year-old bantamweight starlet Francesca Hennessy returns against an opponent tbc. Former British, Commonwealth and European light-heavyweight champion âSuperâ Dan Azeez also joins British boxingâs biggest event of the summer.
