Romford Bull Returns: Johnny Fisher vs Andriy Rudenko Set Sept. 28

England's young heavyweight sensation Johnny Fisher of Romford (12-0, 11 KOs) will look to extend his explosive knockout streak when he takes veteran Ukrainian Andriy Rudenko (36-7, 22 KOs) at the Copper Box Arena in London on Saturday, September 28, live worldwide on DAZN Boxing.

The hugely popular 25-year-old Fisher returns just a few weeks after his spectacular one-round destruction of Croatia's Alen Babic on July 6 in East London in a scheduled ten-round main event.

Johnny Fisher Calls On The Bull Army

“The Copper BOSH Arena is going to be jumping again on September 28,” said Fisher. “We can always rely on The Bull Army to takeover East London as I take the next step in my career. Andriy Rudenko will be my toughest test to date. Proven to be a warrior at the elite level, he will test my mettle. I’m ready.”

Dixon Defends Title Against Harper

Featured on the undercard, WBO World Lightweight champion Rhiannon Dixon of Warrington, England (10-0, 1 KO)  makes the first defense of her title against domestic rival and former world champion Terri Harper of Denaby (14-2-2, 6 KOs) in what promises to be an electric all-British match-up.

Dixon won the vacant WBO crown in a ten-round decision over Karen Elizabeth Carabajal at the AO Arena in Manchester last April, adding a world title to her Commonwealth and European Titles at 135 pounds.

Harper, a former world champion at super featherweight and super welterweight, will be looking to bounce back from her stoppage loss to WBO World Welterweight Champion Sandy Ryan at Sheffield Arena in March.
