Tuesday 1 September 2015 18:18, UK
Former four-weight world champion Roy Jones Jr will face Tony Moran at Aintree Equestrian Centre in Liverpool on September 12.
The 46-year-old American (62-8-KO45) has won his last eight fights and has been calling out newly-crowned WBO world cruiserweight champion Krzysztof Glowacki of late but will first face Liverpudlian Moran.
Moran (15-6-KO5) has been stopped in three of his last five fights but at 6'6", holds a four-inch height advantage over his illustrious opponent.
Jones, who won world titles as a middleweight, super-middleweight, light-heavyweight and heavyweight, has not tasted defeat since May 2011, when he lost to now-WBA world cruiserweight champion Denis Lebedev.
The Floridan was widely regarded as the best fighters in the world when in 2004 and 2005 he suffered a trio of consecutive defeats - losing to Antonio Tarver twice and Glen Johnson.
