Speaking at the Grand Arrivals ahead of their blockbuster clash, Haney promised he would bring an "improved" version of himself after his time away from the ring.

"I love to bring fireworks," he said. "I look to show the world a new and improved, better Devin Haney than before. I had to go back to the drawing board and focus."

Ramirez meanwhile will be leaping up the divisions to contest the welterweight battle, and admits that he is relishing the opportunity to test himself at a new level.

"I owe it to myself to move up to a bigger weight class," he added. "It's four pounds. It's definitely going to do wonders for me on the night. We're ready."
