Anthony Joshua vs. Jermaine Franklin: Who is on the undercard? Full list of fights set for April 1
Excitement is building ahead of Anthony Joshua's return to the O2 Arena when he takes on America's Jermaine Franklin on April 1.
This fight marks the start of a rebuild for Joshua who will be looking to show that he is still a dangerous force in the heavyweight division.
While many fans will be instantly drawn to the main event, there are plenty of fights on the undercard which could steal the night.
Fabio Wardley, fresh from his hard-hitting win over Nathan Gorman last year, takes on Michael Polite Coffie in what should be another explosive encounter.
British middleweight Felix Cash was also set to appear on Saturday's card, but, he was forced to pull out of his fight Matteo Signani due to illness.
As a result, Galal Yafai will now fight this weekend and take on Moises Calleros in a flyweight contest.
