Tuesday 26 April 2016 11:05, UK
Shayne Singleton will face Adil Anwar for the vacant WBC international silver welterweight crown on the undercard of Anthony Crolla's world title defence in Manchester on May 7, live on Sky Sports.
The pair will go toe-to-toe before Crolla puts his WBA lightweight belt on the line for the first time against hard-hitting Venezuelan Ismael Barroso.
Lancastrian Singleton will have his second crack at winning the title after his first attempt was ended in five rounds by Sam Eggington in March last year.
The 26-year-old suffered the first defeat of his professional career after 20 straight wins against Eggington but has since bounced back with back-to-back victories.
Anwar (22-5) returned to winning ways last month with a first-round stoppage of Pole Sylwester Walczak.
The 2012 Prizefighter light-welterweight champion had lost four of his previous six fights including a British title challenge against Darren Hamilton in 2013.
Hull lightweight Tommy Coyle is set to make his comeback following elbow surgery in December in his first fight since losing to Olympic champion Luke Campbell last summer.
Hosea Burton will put his British light-heavyweight title on the line for the first time after stopping Miles Shinkwin in six rounds in February to claim the title with his 15th straight victory.
