Chris Billam-Smith will fight Cheavon Clarke on November 7, live on Sky Sports. The British rivals clash in the headline event of Zuffa Boxing 12 at the Copper Box Arena in London.

Former world champion Billam-Smith is looking to fight his way back to the summit of the cruiserweight division, while Clarke launched himself into the upper echelons of the weight class with a stirring comeback victory over Jack Massey in June.

Billam-Smith and Clarke have a past. A decade ago as amateur boxers, Clarke defeated Billam-Smith in the national elite championship finals. That snuffed out Billam-Smith's hopes of a place on Team GB, while Clarke went on to box for Britain at the Olympic Games. Now he wants revenge.

Billam-Smith did subsequently come into his own as a professional boxer. He won British, European and Commonwealth championships, before dethroning Lawrence Okolie to become the WBO cruiserweight world champion. He defended his title against Mateusz Masternak and Richard Riakporhe before losing a unification battle with Gilberto Ramirez.

Clarke has also featured in action-packed fights, knocking out Ellis Zorro and challenging for the European title. Viddal Riley outpointed him, but Clarke restored his status when he twice rose from the canvas to take out Massey. The undercard includes Lucas Roehrig, Sam Hickey, Da'Mazion Vanhouter, Zach Parker and Umar Dzambekov.
