Sunny Edwards will defend his IBF flyweight title against Andres Campos at the OVO Arena Wembley, London on Saturday, June 10th live worldwide on DAZN – and topping a triple-header of world title action with Nina Hughes defending her WBA bantamweight crown against Shannon Courtenay and Cherneka Johnson defending her IBF super bantamweight strap against Ellie Scotney. Edwards (19-0 4 KOs) makes his Matchroom debut in the capital having penned a promotional deal with Eddie Hearn in March, and the unbeaten Sheffield-based slickster makes his fourth defense of the IBF strap he landed in April 2021 against Moruti Mthalane in London.

 

‘Showtime’ is gunning for unification clashes in the second half of the year and having seen off challenges from Felix Alvarado, Muhammad Waseem and Jayson Mama, he welcomes the Chilean Campos to his homeland. Campos (15-0, 4 KOs), age 26, has called Edwards out before. He landed the 15th win of his career in January and fourth inside the distance – and now lands the world title shot he’s been craving.

 

“Campos has been calling for a fight with me for a couple years now since I’ve been champion which is strange to me,” said Edwards. “So, now I’m gonna cook him like sweet chilli and send him back packing with his tail between his legs, the little muppet!”

 

An all-British world title clash sees WBA bantamweight ruler Hughes (5-0 2 KOs) makes the first defense of her title against former title holder Courtenay (8-2 3 KOs). Hughes landed the title in Dubai in November against Jamie Mitchell, and the late-bloomer from Essex will face a hungry Courtenay in London as the Watford star aims to regain the title she lost on the scales before dropping a majority decision to Mitchell in Liverpool in October 2021 having beaten Ebanie Bridges to win the belt in London six months earlier.

 

The third title bout on the bill pits Australian IBF 122-pound champion Johnson against unbeaten Briton Scotney. Johnson (15-1 6 KOs) got her hands on the vacant title on her home patch in Melbourne 12 months ago against Melissa Esquivel and then bravely coped with a brutal cut in the second round of her first defence against fellow Aussie Susie Ramadan as they served up a classic at the Rod Laver Arena in October. Scotney (6-0) lands her first World title shot against Johnson, and the Catford star, will fight at the Wembley venue for the third time in her burgeoning career after landing the European title in her last outing in October.
