Undefeated Zach Parker will take on Marcus Morrison this weekend as he looks to set up a world title shot in 2022.
Parker has a perfect record of 21 straight wins and beat Sherzod Khusanov at the Royal Albert Hall over the summer.
The 27-year-old is the WBO International super-middleweight champion but is eager to move up the ranks and eventually challenge for Canelo Alvarez’s world gold.
Parker will face a tough test this weekend against Morrison.
‘Sweet MNM’ is 24 and four in his professional career and beat Lewis van Poetsch last time out to bounce back from a defeat to Chris Eubank Jr.

“Marcus knows this is another great chance. Zach knows that he will bring his best on fight night.
