Matchroom's triple-header title fight night on Nov. 14 has two new bouts for the undercard, as Jamie Cox faces Jack Cullen and John Docherty fights Jack Arnfield.

Matchroom have announced two new fights for their Nov. 14 world title triple-header.

The Sky Sports and DAZN event will see Katie Taylor face Miriam Gutierrez, Terri Harper take on Katharina Thanderz, and Ebanie Bridges will meet Rachell Ball.

Jamie Cox will face Jack Cullen, and John Docherty will fight Jack Arnfield as the pair of fights have been added to the undercard.

Cox has not fought for two years and is keen to get back into the ring.

"I've been out a while now, I'm looking forward to getting back in there. I've got a new set up with Tony Borg down in Wales which has given my boxing a new dimension which I'll show in November," said Cox.

Cullen’s last fight came against Zak Chelli in a Matchroom Fight Camp event, and after drawing that match-up he is keen to return to winning ways.

"This is a big name in Jamie Cox, I couldn't have asked for a better opponent in the circumstances. He comes to fight and as you know I bring it as well. It'll make for a fan friendly fight for those watching I'm sure," said Cullen.

Docherty has been touted for title events next year and is confident of beating Arnfield.

"Jack's experienced but I'm levels above him and I'll show that come fight night. I'll smash him to pieces," said Docherty.

Arnfield has moved up from the middleweight division and hopes his comfort with extra weight will give him a chance of victory.

"I was a tall middleweight, the past 2/3 fights was a struggle but I'm feeling fit and healthier up a weight which will reflect in my punch power. I'm not overlooking 'The Doc' but I've set myself bigger goals," said Arnfield.

Eddie Hearn was pleased with the additions to his line up, saying: "Two really good super-middleweight fights added to our world championship triple-header on November 14.

"It's great to see Jamie Cox back, he looks in great shape but faces a tough challenge in the always exciting Jack Cullen.

"A huge step up in class for John Docherty against two-time British Title challenger Jack Arnfield. Two 50-50 fights confirmed for what will be a great night of action live on Sky Sports and DAZN."

Taylor will be putting her lightweight world titles on the line, Harper is defending against WBC mandatory challenger Thanderz, and Ball and Bridges are contesting the vacant WBA bantamweight title.
