John Ryder faces Andrey Sirotkin in a final eliminator for the WBA super-middleweight world title at the Copper Box Arena in London on October 27, live on Sky Sports and DAZN in the US. Ryder is back in action following his stunning two-round destruction of Jamie Cox on the Bellew vs. Haye 2 undercard at The O2 in May.

It was another explosive statement from ‘The Gorilla’ following his brilliant win over Patrick Nielsen inside five rounds, and now he finds himself just one win away from a dream world title shot.

Sirotkin, the current WBA Inter-Continental champion, sits two places behind Ryder in the rankings at #5 and is unbeaten in all 15 of his contests, picking up a number of ranking titles from the WBC and WBO along the way.
