Ben Whittaker promised to show why he's nicknamed The Surgeon after a successful weigh-in before his Matchroom bow, live on DAZN, against Benjamin Gavazi Saturday night.

The Andy Lee-trained light heavyweight will make his second appearance of the year, some seven months after breezing beyond Liam Cameron in their heavily-anticipated rematch.

He'll do so with a new promotional outfit backing him, reinvigorated by the Eddie Hearn seal of approval after some bittersweet times aligned with Ben Shalom and BOXXER, though Germany's Gavazi (19-1, 13 KOs) will fancy a chance to put the hometown hero under duress and spring an upset as he steadily builds up his competition towards world level.

"Looking good, aren't I?" Whittaker (9-0-1, 6 KOs) quipped to Matchroom's Jamie Moore after flexing for the cameras, displaying his svelte physique.

"I worked out in Ireland, am feeling good and ready to put on a show. I knew this was going to come, now it's showtime. He's showing good energy, coming to fight, now I show why I'm the surgeon. I'm a perfectionist, going to break him down and look good doing it."

Elsewhere on the card, Cameron Vuong will seek to put the Gavin Gwynne chapter of his promising career behind him when they do battle once more, 12 months on from their competitive clash - one many felt the Welsh veteran did enough to edge on the scorecards.

This time at lightweight, the Ben Davison-trained prospect (9-0, 4 KOs) wants to deliver an improved display against an older operator keen to leave no doubts this time around.

Commonwealth Games bronze medallist Aaron Bowen faces his first title action over 10 rounds for a vacant regional belt, while world title-chasing Molly McCann seeks another stoppage when opening up the four-fight main card on DAZN from 2pm ET/7pm GMT.
