Josh Warrington will attempt to retain his IBF world featherweight title tonight as he faces Mexican Luis Alberto Lopez.
Lopez will be up against a passionate home crowd for Warrington in Leeds, but compatriot Mauricio Lara's efforts last year could serve as inspiration.
A win for the world champion would give Warrington the chance of fulfilling his ambition of a huge fight stateside or a unificiation clash next year.
