Scott Quigg faces Jono Carroll tonight in a grudge match at the Manchester Arena. Elsewhere on the card, Hughie Fury takes on Pavel Sour while Robbie Davies Jr, Anthony Fowler and Zach Parker all feature too.
Quigg and Carroll were meant to do battle on the undercard of Anthony Joshua vs Andy Ruiz Jr in Saudi Arabia but the bout was pulled because of an injury to Quigg.
The Bury-born former world champion has not fought since October 2018 while Carroll is coming off a tick-over win against Eleazar Valenzuela in August.
Before that, the Irishman failed in his quest to win super-featherweight world title gold from Tevin Farmer in Philadelphia.
JUST IN: Tyson Fury explains why Anthony Joshua is not a real champion
Carroll said: “After Saudi got cancelled I genuinely thought that Scott bottled it, I had no issues with him but I just remember thinking he better not have bottled that.
“This is a career shift, I have always wanted to top bills and I remember being at Manchester Arena when Scott fought Kiko Martinez thinking I cannot wait until that is me and now I’m here.”
Quigg added: “It’s good to be back in Manchester in an exciting fight. I have been out of the ring for a long time and it has been frustrating but now I am back with Joe and really looking forward to March 7.

“This is a fight that really excites me, he is going to come and try and have a go but he will get demolished. 2020 is going to be a very successful year for me.”
On the undercard, Fury faces Sour, a bout which was supposed to take place on Monaco back in November but was cancelled because of a virus Fury picked up on fight week.
The co-feature of the evening tonight will be Zach Parker vs Rohan Murdock, with the winner in line to eventually take on Billy Joe Saunders for his WBO super-middleweight title.
Anthony Fowler was meant to face Jack Flatley but Theophilus Tetteh has since stepped in to face the Liverpudlian because of an injury to Flatley.
