On June 18th, the IBF scheduled a purse bid for a 130-pound elimination bout between Sultan Zaurbek (20-0) of Kazakhstan and Jackson England (19-3) of Australia. The two were originally scheduled to duel it out for the IBF junior lightweight mandatory position on December 15, 2025, but the bout did not take place. Although the IBF has scheduled a purse bid for June 30th, it appears the fighters have reached an agreement to fight each other on July 17th in Perth, Australia. Pathway Boxing and the Perth High Performance Centre currently have tickets on sale for that date. Here is the venue's listing of the full card:
