Billy Joe Saunders is back in the ring against Martin Murray with his WBO world title on the line at the SSE Wembley Arena on Friday evening.

Saunders has not fought for over a year, though he was cruelly denied a shot at Canelo Alvarez with his fight falling through, due to the Covid-19 pandemic. An opportunity against the Mexican could still present itself in 2021, though Murray represents a banana skin for the two-weight world champion, who will need to impress to remain attractive to the broadcasters.

Murray has proven to be an awkward opponent for other world champions in the past and it is widely accepted that he is unfortunate to not count himself as a world title holder after a disputed points defeat against Sergio Martinez.

Murray lost a majority decision against Hassan N'Dam N'Jikam in 2018, though the 38-year-old will be determined to grasp this chance, having been denied a fight against Saunders in the past twice, with the two fights between the pair cancelled in recent years.

The undercard will involve James Tennyson, Zach Parker, Shannon Courtenay and Lerrone Richards. Here is everything you need to know:

When and where is the fight?
