MATCHROOM ANNOUNCES AO AS ASSOCIATE SPONSOR FOR CHISORA VS. PARKER AND HARPER VS. CHOI
PhilBoxing.com Sat, 01 May 2021
Matchroom Boxing are delighted to announce Bolton-based online electricals retailer AO as an associate sponsor for Saturday’s blockbuster card at the AO Arena, Manchester topped by Derek Chisora’s crunch Heavyweight clash with Joseph Parker, as well as Saturday May 15’s huge bill headlined by the Super-Featherweight World Title unification battle between Terri Harper and Hyun-Mi Choi.
Chisora and Parker lock horns on an unmissable night of action that sees Irish star Katie Taylor defend her Undisputed Lightweight crown against former amateur rival Natasha Jonas and undefeated WBA Light-Heavyweight World Champion Dmitry Bivol put his Title on the line against Craig Richards, as well as the return of Chris Eubank Jr against Marcus Morrison and much more.
Harper puts her WBC and IBO Super-Featherweight World Titles on the line against undefeated WBA World Champion Choi two weeks later at the top of a bill that features three European Title fights as well as the return of rising Light-Heavyweight star Joshua Buatsi, and an exciting matchup between Dalton Smith and Lee Appleyard for the vacant English Super-Lightweight Title.
David Lawson, AO.com Managing Director commented on the announcement: “We’re looking forward to opening the doors to the AO Arena, and welcoming some of the best talent in boxing to the venue.”
