Belfast boxer Lewis Crocker will take on Limerick’s Paddy Donovan in a headline welterweight fight at the SSE Arena on Saturday, 1 March.
Both fighters will put their unbeaten professional records on the line in the Matchroom Boxing contest in Belfast.
Crocker has a record of 20 wins, 11 of which have come by knockout, the last coming in January as he stopped Jose Felix in the fifth round.
The 27-year-old,who has held the WBO European welterweight title and the WBA Continental European title, beat Conah Walker on points in his last fight in June.
Donovan has an equally impressive record, with 11 knockouts from 14 fights, stopping Lewis Ritson in the ninth round in his most recent bout in May.
Crocker had stated after his win against Felix at the start of the year that “everything had to be right” for both him and Donovan to meet in the ring, but that they were “willing to fight each other.”
