The British star will be facing Otto Wallin which will be a name known to boxing fans. 

The Swedish heavyweight is mostly known for his performance against Tyson Fury back in 2019, and while Wallin lost that fight on the judges' scorecards, he created plenty of problems for Fury and after a six successive wins since the loss to Fury, Wallin is now a legitimate heavyweight contender.
