In London we see a number of Britain’s rising stars aim for title glory, including Ted Cheeseman who looks to dethrone fellow unbeaten fighter Sergio Garcia who arrives as the defending European champion.

Across the pond and Sergey Kovalev has been written off by bookmakers who say he has little chance of gaining revenge for a seventh-round knockout defeat suffered at the hands of Eleider Alvarez back in the summer when the rivals meet in a much-anticipated rematch in Frisco on Sunday morning; this is a clash you can follow live on BoxNation. One well worth staying up for.

Tank Remains Untouched

Gervonta Davis heads into the latest challenge of his career with a perfect 20-fight record, no less than 19 of his wins coming by way of knockout. The 24-year-old rising star made his debut at DC Armory in Washington with a first-round KO over Desi Williams six years ago; he has since wasted no time clambering through the ranks. The Maryland born fighter’s path to the top has earned him a clutch of titles, including the IBF super featherweight world strap and WBA title in the same weight category. He has been taken the distance only once to date and that was over six rounds by German Meraz early in his career, a result that’s easy enough to overlook.

Tank quickly got back down to business and won the IBF title in 2017 with the seventh-round stoppage of Jose Pedraza in Brooklyn. Briton Liam Walsh lasted only three rounds next time out when Davis defended his crown with another stoppage at the Copperbox Arena in London, landing a perfectly timed overhand right to end things. British fight fans have been fully paid up members of his fan club ever since and would consider it an honour if he were to return to these shores.
