Lyndon Arthur stunned the British boxing scene with a sensational split decision victory over Anthony Yarde last year.

The 30-year-old light-heavyweight was the heavy underdog going into the fight but managed to outbox Yarde with his superb jab.

Now the pair go to war once more as Yarde looks to put the defeat behind him and move on to world honours in 2022.

But, with the winner set to face either Joe Smith Jr or Callum Johnson for the WBO light-heavyweight title next year, Arthur will be more motivated than ever to win this.
