Devin Haney begins the next phase of his career this weekend, as he moves up in weight to challenge Regis Prograis.
Haney declared last week that he is relinquishing his undisputed lightweight belts, as he bids to take the WBC super-lightweight title from Prograis.
The Americans will go head to head in San Francisco, where Haney, 25, will look to stay unbeaten and hand Prograis his second defeat as a pro.
Haney last fought in May, winning a narrow decision over ex-champion Vasiliy Lomachenko to remain undisputed at lightweight, while Prograis, 34, last boxed in June, edging past Danielito Zorrilla to retain his title.
