Josh Warrington, Luke Campbell, Dillian Whyte and more will feature on a huge night of boxing at Leeds' First Direct Arena on July 30 - live on Sky Sports.
Unbeaten local featherweight Warrington (23-0-KO4) will be looking to move a step closer to a world title shot having outpointed Hisashi Amagasa at the same venue in April.
With Warrington's opponent as yet unnamed, there'll be plenty of interest on the undercard with Campbell, Whyte, Sam Eggington, Frankie Gavin, Ryan Burnett and Gamal Yafai all starring along with Tyrone Nurse defending his British super-lightweight title against Tommy Coyle.
"This is by far the biggest night of boxing we have held in the Leeds Arena and there's some excellent match ups," said promoter Eddie Hearn. Josh will continue his march to a world title and I'm very excited about the all-Yorkshire clash for the British title between Nurse and Coyle.
"Luke Campbell is looking to climb the World rankings after his impressive win in Sheffield and hot prospect Gamal Yafai will be up against some strong support and a very game and experienced Josh Wale when defending his Commonwealth title.
"One of the world's top prospects Ryan Burnett returns and heavyweight star Dillian Whyte will continue his charge in the division. There's plenty more action and a full announcement will be made on Monday."
