Chris Billam-Smith headlines Zuffa Boxing’s inaugural UK show in his hometown of Bournemouth against Canada’s Ryan Rozicki on Saturday.
Billam-Smith (21-2, 13 KOs) faces Rozicki (21-1-1, 20 KOs) at the Bournemouth International Centre.
‘CBS’, 35, previously held the WBO cruiserweight world title, making two defences before shipping the belt to Zurdo Ramirez in a unification clash in 2024.
‘The Gentleman’ returned to winning ways with a unanimous decision victory over Brandon Glanton last April and looks to edge closer to another world title shot with victory here.
Rozicki fell short in a bid for the WBC bridgerweight title in 2021 and was held to a majority draw against Yamil Peralta for the vacant interim WBC cruiserweight title in 2024.
The 31-year-old was last out in March, halting Gerardo Mellado in two rounds and is the number one contender for Noel Mikaelian’s WBC crown.
