Johnny Fisher and Dave Allen will come to blows for a second time this weekend as they rematch in London.
Fisher won the first meeting between the Brit rivals on the Oleksandr Usyk vs Tyson Fury 2 undercard in December.
Fisher beat Allen in Saudi Arabia, with the result leading to controversyMatchroomHowever, the result was shrouded in controversy as the boxing world questioned the split decision going in favour of the ‘Romford Bull’.
Allen, who went 10 rounds for the first time ever in Saudi Arabia, handed Fisher his first career knockdown and looked set to win.
But, after Fisher survived until the end of the bout, a decision that was labelled ‘disgraceful’ and ‘diabolical’ followed, handing him the victory and extending his unbeaten record to 13-0.
So now, ‘The Doncaster De La Hoya’ will be aiming to right the supposed wrongs and come out on top in the rematch.

“I’m chilled out,” Fisher told The Stomping Ground. “I’m excited and I’m ready to go in there and have a great fight. This is what I dreamed of doing when I was a university student.
“He’s my enemy right now. That’s how it’s got to be. He’s trying to take what I’ve got, he’s trying to derail what I’ve built. I’ve got to stop that happening. I’ve got to win at all costs.
“I was too nice, too friendly. I still don’t have any hard feelings towards the bloke. I’ve just got to go in there and do my job. I don’t think he’s a bad bloke. I feel emotionless.
“It’s a boxing match. [Camp] is all done now. The old fight, the old version, it is irrelevant. This is a new fight. It’s a man with a pair of boxing gloves fighting another man.
“I don’t look back, I don’t look forward. I’ve got to beat this guy who is in front of me. It doesn’t matter if I’ve fought him before, it doesn’t matter if I’ve fought him five times before.
“It’s the same thing. I’ve got to win a boxing match.”
