Jai Opetaia (22-0, 17 KOs) will take on Jordan Thompson (15-0, 12 KOs) in his long-awaited IBF cruiserweight title defence.

The Australian took the belt with a win over Mairis Briedis in July 2022, and has had to wait over a year to reassert himself as one of the world's best boxers. 

Thompson will have the home turf advantage at OVO Arena Wembley, and is no easy-beat with 15 wins and 12 knockouts to his name.
