Daniel Dubois & Tommy Fury are back!
Daniel Dubois returns to the ring for the first time since suffering a maiden defeat against fellow British heavyweight Joe Joyce.
The 23-year-old was forced to take a knee in the 10th round of the bout in November, after a brutal shot from Joyce left his eye with severe swelling.
Yet Dubois has vowed to come back with a vengeance and has been working with new trainer Shane McGuigan ahead of Saturday's comeback.
The man he's facing is an experienced campaigner in the shape of 34-year-old Bogdan Dinu, who holds a 20-2 record with 16 knockouts.
The Romanian will head to the Telford International Centre on Saturday night aiming to stun the British heavyweight once again and claim the biggest scalp of his lengthy career.
Elsewhere on the card, some of Britain’s finest prospects are on show, including Nathan Heaney and Tommy Fury who has spent time training with brother Tyson out in the USA.

UFC Fight Night - Rozenstruik v Sakai
No need to set your alarms, we've got a prime time card this Saturday night!
Heavyweight contenders Jairzinho Rozenstruik and Augusto Sakai look to get back on track and propel themselves into the title conversation following respective setbacks.
After 10 wins in his first 10, Surinamese fighter Rozenstruik has tasted defeat in two of his previous three outings - against Francis Ngannou and Ciryl Gane.
Rozenstruik began his UFC career with four wins in just 11 months but now, aged 33, may be running out of chances to stake his claim for gold.
And Sakai, who hails from Brazil, lost for the first time in nearly three years when he fell to veteran Alistair Overeem back in September.
Now 15-2-1 overall, the 30-year-old must restore some momentum if he is to put himself in contention for the heavyweight belt, currently occupied by Ngannou.
Elsewhere on the card, Walt Harris looks to get back on track against Marcin Tybura and middleweights Roman Dolidze and Laureano Staropoli go head-to-head.

MotoGP - Grand Prix of Catalunya
We're already at the seventh round of the season with action from the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya in Montmelo this weekend.
Fabio Quartararo took a stranglehold on proceedings in Mugello last weekend, with a third victory of the season leaving the Yamaha rider 24 points clear of second-placed Johann Zarco.
With Maverick Vinales and Jack Miller (2) the only other riders to claim victory in the six races so far, it means Quartararo can open up some daylight with a second-straight win in Catalunya.
