THE gloves are on and the horns are locked as Joshua Buatsi and Zach Parker go head to head at the top of a blockbuster bill in Manchester!
The former British super-middleweight title holder, Parker, will take on 2016 Olympic medalist and Anthony Joshua’s prodigy, Buatsi, in a 12-round showcase of British boxing.
The fight between the men will be under the Light Heavyweight division, which means the weight limit will be 79.4kg (12.5 stone or 175lbs).
Buatsi steps into the ring with a record of 19 wins, 1 loss, and 0 draws, 13 of those wins coming by way of knockout.
Parker will make his way to the ring with a record of 26 wins, 1 loss and 0 draws, with 18 of those wins by knockout.
And he comes in with the pedigree and experience to win, having not conceded a defeat since 2022, since injury forced him to retire in a WBO Interim world title fight against John Ryder.
In contrast, Buatsi has some unfinished business, coming off the back of his first professional loss since 2017, after 12 rounds back in February as part of Riyadh Season.
