The big bill at the O2 Arena, in London, on 9th April just continues to get better by the minute.

With Anthony Joshua hoping to wrestle the IBF world heavyweight crown off of Charles Martin, the O2 Arena will be a pumped up arena full of noise and expectation.

Today it has been announced that the British WBA world bantamweight champion Jamie McDonnell, will be making a defence of his title.

The 30-year-old will be defending his belt against Juan Alberto Rosas in what will be McDonnell?s first fight in the United Kingdom since 2014 when, in Liverpool, he beat the Argentine fighter Javier Chacon.

Last year the popular Doncaster fighter had back-to-back wins over Japan?s Tomoki Kameda, thereby retaining his title.

This fight promises to be a cracker on a card that is looking like one of the best Eddie Hearn has assembled.
