Deion Jumah (2-0, 1 KO) has been added to the undercard of the heavyweight showdown between David Haye and Tyson Fury at the Phones 4u Arena in Manchester on September 28.

Since his last fight the former two-time ABA Champion has joined forces with Adam Booth and been training alongside David Haye and George Groves at the Hayemaker Gym.

‘’Training at the Hayemaker Gym has been great,’’ said the 24-year-old southpaw.

‘’You learn something new everyday. Since my last fight I’ve spent a lot of time in the gym with Adam, slowing things down and really thinking about what I am doing. It has been a process of being broken down and then rebuilding. People are going to be looking at a different, more complete fighter come September 28.”

The London-based cruiserweight is relishing the opportunity to fight in front a home crowd.

‘’My first two fights have been abroad – one in Germany and one in Denmark. It will be good to be home and box in front of a British crowd on such a massive show. The atmosphere is going to be incredible and I am ready to step up and show everybody what I am capable of.’’
