The unbeaten Harlem becomes the first member of the famous Eubank fighting family to headline in their home city, since Chris Eubank Senior defended his world title in the 1990s.

Eubank knows a victory in front of his home fans will catapult his career towards big fights but the experienced Schwarzkopf has flown over from Germany, intent on causing an upset.

Harlem Eubank said: "I feel great, I feel ready to put on a statement performance. I am ready to go out and put on a display we've been preparing for.  This is the homecoming I have wanted for a long time and one I have worked hard for. I am going to bring it back home for my people."

Timo Schwarzkopf said: "He's a good fighter, but we will see if he is a real warrior like Chris Eubank Senior was. I am a warrior like Senior but is the younger Eubank as strong?  I will test him to the head and test him to the body."
