It had been announced that Vijender Singh would feature on
the Saturday 2nd April show at the Harrow Leisure Centre in London , but following a
reschedule he has been moved, instead, onto the undercard of Billy Joe
Saunders’ WBO World Middleweight title defence against Max Bursak.
Vijender Singh, who took his record to 4-0 in Liverpool earlier this month with a blistering fourth
round stoppage of Alexander Horvath, will fight in a four-round contest against
an opponent to be announced.
In the summer he is scheduled to make his highly-anticipated
homecoming in India
where he will fight for the first time as a professional in his homeland in
front of thousands of his adoring fans.
An excited Vijender Singh said, “I’m thrilled to
be fighting on the same card as the WBO World Middleweight Champion Billy Joe
Saunders on Saturday 30th April at the Copper Box Arena.
Saunders is in the position that I want to be in one day, the middleweight
champion of the world. So it’s a busy few months ahead and then of course
I will be making my big homecoming in India which will be absolutely
amazing and I can’t wait.”
