  • 'The best card of the 21st Century'

    Frank Warren has been speaking to TNT Sports and is still buzzing about the quality on offer tonight - despite the withdrawals that threatened to derail the event.

    He said: "This is a brilliant card, it is the best card of the 21st century - no doubt about it.

    "We've had a couple of fighters withdraw but we've been able to find quality replacements.

    "I can't tell you the aggravation we've had this week, but this is going to be a special night for boxing.

    "I think we're in for a treat.

    "I am very much looking forward to it."

  • Action about to start

    The first fight of the night is about to start. We have local prospect Ziyad Almaayouf (6-0-1) against Engel Gomez (8-42-3).

    Almaayouf is on his way to the ring now and gets a fist bump from boxing supremo Turki Alalshikh before he climbs into the ring.

  • Full Card

    What a night we have in front of us. Three title fights, four eliminators and huge British interest.

    There is a potential classic between Joshua Buatsi and Callum Smith, Hamzah Sheeraz gets a deserved title shot after his brilliant rise and Josh Padley has the chance to pull off one of the biggest shocks in boxing history.

    There's also two massive heayweight eliminators with some of the most dangerous punchers in the game.

    And all that comes before the main event between two of the world's very best to end the night.

    I'm exhausted just thinking about it.

    Here's the card in full:

    • Artur Beterbiev vs Dmitry Bivol - for the IBF, IBO, WBC and WBO light-heavyweight titles
