Luke Kelly has a kickboxing bout against an opponent from Stoke-on-Trent, while Thai Barlow also has a kickboxing bout against Ryan Bayley, from Birmingham, a current British champion at a heavier weight, in what promises to be a fine bout.

Aaron Watson has his first international bout against Polish fighter Egor Mankawski over five rounds, while Chris Podesta faces Arnas Tatarunas from Lithuania, over three rounds. Arnas is a good strong technical fighter.
Michael Robinson is eager for revenge against Richard Harding, who beat him two years ago with a fourth-round stoppage and faces a five-round re-match.
Up-and-coming fighter Aston Grewcock steps up a class to fight Dutch fighter Youssef Fettouh, from the Xplosion Gym in Holland. This three-round fight should test Aston.
Top of the show is Iman Barlow who faces Marianne Louise Ozturk, also from team Xplosion in a five-round bout. Ozturk is 19 years old and a very good, experienced fighter and is known as a knockout artist.
Iman's dad Mark said: "We know she is a good puncher and kicker.
"Our game plan is to get inside and use the knee and then in the later rounds open up with the kicks and punches."
