Kid Galahad is to fight former world champion Joseph Agbeko at featherweight on the undercard of Chris Eubank Jnr's clash with Renold Quinlan at London's Olympia.
The fight represents his fourth in under a year, after 19 months out following a doping ban, and one of the toughest match-ups of his career.
Ghanaian Agbeko, 36, was once the IBF bantamweight champion, but lost in 2013 when challenging the great Cuban Guillermo Rigondeaux.
"It is my toughest test so far in my career but I will come through it and it will be a world title bid very soon," said Galahad, real name Barry Awad, whose finest win to date came against James Dickens at super-bantamweight, also in 2013. "This kid is high quality and I know I've got to be at my very best."
Galahad, 26, tested positive for the banned substance stanozolol in September 2014 and received a backdated two-year suspension. He insisted his drink had been spiked, and after an appeal from his legal team, UK Anti-Doping in March 2016 agreed to reduce his ban by six months.
