Dillian Whyte is scheduled to face Alexander Povetkin in a rematch on the 21st of

November as he seeks to redeem himself after a terrible loss in their initial fight.

32-year-old Whyte lost to Povetkin in August after he was knocked out despite

dominating the Russian for the major part of the fight.

That win ensured Povetkin joined Anthony Joshua as the only men to beat Whyte

while the British boxer also lost his shot at a world title but a rematch clause in

the contract will afford him another fight with the man from Eastern Europe.

Promoter Eddie Hearn Hearn has also stated a schedule for other fights including

Britain's Chantelle Cameron seeking a first world title when she battles Brazilian

Adriana Dos Santos Araujo for the WBC super-lightweight belt on 4th October.

Whyte, whose fight with Povetkin has been described by Hearn as a "must win"

for the Briton, returned to his Portugal training camp after the loss which

showcased one of the most scintillating knockouts in recent heavyweight history.

Also, undefeated British light-heavyweight boxer Joshua Buatsi will also feature

on the card, while on the 17th of October Savannah Marshall will take on

Scotland's Hannah Rankin in an all-British fight for the vacant women's WBO

middleweight world title.

Meanwhile, no venues have been listed for the fights but Hearn said the shows

will run "with our without fans" and that talks are ongoing with the UK

government for spectators to return to arenas.
