Anthony Joshua vs Oleksandr Uzyk undercard fights confirmed, with Lawrence Okolie defending his world title against Prasovic

LAWRENCE OKOLIE will defend the WBO title as cruiserweight against Dilan Prasovic in Anthony Joshua vs Oleksandr Uzyk's undercard, September 25.

28-year-old Olympian Prasovic, a 2016 unbeaten boxer, will be facing Prasovic, 26, next year at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Okolie will defend the vacant belt for the first time after winning it against Krzysztof Golowacki in March.

Callum Smith is back in action after being stripped of his WBA super-middleweight title by Saul Alvarez.

The Liverpudlian makes a highly-anticipated comeback to light-heavyweight, where he faces Dominican Republic's Lenin Castillo.

Ricky Hatton is continuing his professional apprenticeship with Campbell, his son. He is currently fighting Izan Dura.

Campbell, 20 years old, has won all three fights he has fought, but he still needs a knockout.

After Rylan Charlton's impressive KO victory, Florian Marku, welterweight, will be competing for the IBF international title.

Joseph Markowski, DAZN EVP, commented on the undercard and said that it was an action-packed card that would thrill boxing fans all over the globe.

"Callum Smith and Lawrence Okolie are household names and will raise the roof at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium prior to the extraordinary main event.

"It's going to be an amazing night of boxing on DAZN in 170+ countries, territories."

Sky Sports‘ Head of Boxing Development Adam Smith remarked: “We’ve followed Lawrence Okolie’s career since the start and he’ll be determined to light up North London with an explosive defence of his WBO cruiserweight belt.

“Callum Smith is on a collision course with new world title rivals, having joined the light-heavyweight division.

“And Campbell Hatton continues his journey up the pro ranks with the help of Matthew and Ricky Hatton.”
