    Former European champion Tennyson, 27, will challenge for the ranking title on the undercard of the Vasily Lomachenko-Luke Campbell fight.

    Tennyson has already chalked up two wins this year with victories over Garry Neale and Brayan Mairen.

    Shafiq comes into the contest with a record of 21 wins from 23 fights.

    Tennyson has won 24 of his 27 professional bouts with one of his three defeats coming last October against Tevin Farmer when he was fighting for the IBF super-featherweight world title.

    We were talking about this last night in the gym. We all went with Tennyson. He's very strong at the weight and has more experience than shafiq. Don't get me wrong it's not s given but shafiq is susceptible to a right cross and he's been on ***** street a couple of times from right hands, he just doesn't defend them well enough.
    Saying that, he made the move to haroon Hedley recently, hopefully that's the first thing he fixed.

    Tennyson should win easily enough
