Anthony Joshua vs. Daniel Dubois live updates: fight times, current ring walk, predictions, more

Undefeated Mark Chamberlain, a 25-year-old lightweight from Portsmouth, won many fans when he explosively stopped Joshua Wahab in the first round in May as the undercard for the Tyson Fury-Oleksandr Usyk fight.

This victory pushed Chamberlain further forward in an incredibly competitive division and the challenger, with a record of 16-0, landed in the top five of the WBC and IBF lightweight rankings and eighth in the WBO table.

“There's nothing bigger than a fight at Wembley,” Chamberlain told BBC Sport ahead of tonight's fixture. “Josh Padley is just another man ahead of me who will be put in his place tonight. I really believe I can make it to the top of this sport.”

But Padley, himself undefeated with a record of 14-0, will be a difficult opponent, especially as the 28-year-old believes he is just one win away from quitting his job and boxing full-time. “I would love to be able to dedicate myself to boxing full-time,” he told British radio station Talksport. “The bigger the fight, the more you have to invest in the training camps. And that's what this one is.”

This will begin shortly.
