Danny Quartermaine vs Karim Guerfi
Local hero Danny Quartermaine (11-0-0) returns to Coventry where he won his IBF European Title in spectacular fashion.
The Midland’s fighter defends his belt as he looks to add the vacant WBO European Title to his accolades against former EBU Champion and World Title Challenger Karim Guerfi (32-7-0) in a huge step up on his journey towards world honours.
The fan-favourite fighter known for his all-action style rose to prominence when previously boxing on Sky Sports.
In his last outing, Quartermaine was crowned IBF European Champion just days after signing a long term promotional deal with GBM Sports.
Hughie Fury vs TBA
Heavyweight contender, and cousin of the former WBC Heavyweight World Champion, (28-3-0) returns for his third fight in as many months as he continues his climb through the Heavyweight ranks.
The tough heavyweight from one of most renowned fighting lineages won the respect and admiration of fans when he challenged the likes of Heavyweight World Champion Joseph Parker, and seasoned operators in Kubrat Pulev and Alexander Povetkin.
Illness kept Hughie out of the ring for almost three years, but now he is back and making his mark on big time boxing.
Still only 29 years of age, Fury hopes like his former opponent Joseph Parker, activity will unlock his World Title dreams in 2024.
Nyall Berry vs Francesco De Rosa
Someone’s 0 has got to go as one of Britain’s brightest prospects, Nyall Berry (10-0-0), who wowed fans on Sky Sports with his dazzling fluidity yet ruthlessly spiteful style looks to continue his undefeated reign against fellow undefeated fighter Francesco De Rosa (8-0-0) for the IBF European Super Bantamweight Title.
Ashlee Eales vs James Richardson
In a mouth-watering 50:50 clash, Ashlee Eales (10-0-0) takes on James Richardson (7-1-0) for the BBBofC Midlands Area Super Welterweight Title.
Local bragging rights will be up for grabs along with the Midlands title as the pair bring huge crowds to the Coventry Skydome for the must-see brawl.
Nabil Messaoudi vs Asinia Byfield
Nabil Messaoudi (10-0-0, 10KOs) puts his perfect record on the line against Asinia Byfield (16-6-1) who has never been stopped. This is brutal power meeting an iron chin in a 50:50 fight that could go either way.
New Kids on the Block
New GBM signings, fan favourite and close friend of Conor McGregor, Tiernan Bradley (9-0-0) will look to extend his winning record on the card.
The fierce puncher’s fellow countryman Kieran Molloy (8-0-0) who recently signed a long-term deal with GBM Sports after previously being signed to Top Rank will also return to action on the stacked card after going to war in a thrilling contest on his GBM debut.
Rest of the Action
In an action packed night of boxing, Harvey Lambert (4-0-0), River Wilson-Bent (16-4-2), Arlo Stephens (1-0-0), Scott Melvin (9-1-0), and Niall Farrell (29-17-0) return to action on the card.
