Adeleye Vs Bezus Weigh-In Results & Photos

DAVID ADELEYE BIDS to join the heavyweight title-holders when he fights for a first professional belt on Friday against Dmytro Bezus at York Hall, live on BT Sport.

Both unbeaten heavies hold a record of 10-0 heading into a challenge for the vacant WBO European title. The Londoner tops the KO-count with nine against the Ukrainians five stoppages, while it is a first 10-round encounter for both men.

Riga resident Bezus will enjoy a couple of inches height advantage over Adeleye, making him a taller order for Big D's maiden title tilt that will headline the BT Sport 2 card, which begins at 7pm.

Title action is also the order of the night for Waterlooville lightweight Mark Chamberlain, who will make a first defence of his IBF European title against the Italian Vairo Lenti.

Lenti holds a record of 10-4-1, so has the edge in experience and carries a reputation for being a stubborn, tough customer. The 11-0 Chamberlain is known to be a formidable puncher, but he put a valuable 10 rounds in the bank last time out against the Spaniard Marc Vidal to win his belt.

Chamberlain, tipped to take on fellow Queensberry lightweight Sam Noakes in the future, has an eye on British honours and has expressed a willingness to fight the winner of the forthcoming Gavin Gwynn-Craig Woodruff title collision.

The third championship fight of the night comes at super lightweight, with stylish southpaw Henry Turner making a first defence of his WBC International Silver title against the Spaniard Zeus de Armas.

'The Showman' Turner won his belt over in Dubai back in November when he overcame the adversity of being tangled up in the ropes and suffering a number of free shots, before poleaxing his opponent Jorge Abel Bermudez with a straight knockout moments later.
