Dillian Whyte takes on Jermaine Franklin in his first fight since being knocked out by WBC world heavyweight champion Tyson Fury in April.
For Whyte, this is a chance to re-establish himself as a major player in the heavyweight division and he will fancy his chances against Franklin who is yet to face anyone of note on his 21-fight resume.
In addition to bouncing back from a poor performance against Fury, a win for Whyte could potentially put him on the path to a second fight with former two-time world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua who is hoping to box in early 2023.
