“These two guarantee explosive performances every time they fight.

“Another knockout for Daniel moves him closer to a huge fight for the WBA World title held by Trevor Bryan, whilst Tommy’s reward for an exciting performance could well be a future fight with Jake Paul.

“This is a tremendous opportunity for both and I’m delighted to deliver it to them so early in their careers.”
