“It’s going to be a big night of boxing in Manchester,” said BOXXER promoter Ben Shalom. “I think this is Tasha’s toughest test to date and it promises to be a spectacular women’s fight, just weeks after the all women’s icon card in London, on 15 October.”

It will be a big test for Brad early in his career. It’s interesting and it could be a fight tonight. Brad has the opportunity to make a real statement in front of the home crowd on the big stage.”
