Errol Spence Jr makes his long-awaited return against Tim Tszyu in Australia on Sunday.
Spence Jr (28-1, 22 KOs) meets Tszyu (27-3, 18 KOs) at the Afterpay Arena in Sydney.
Spence has not been seen since suffering his first professional defeat to Terence Crawford in July 2023.
‘The Truth’ was down three times before succumbing to a ninth round TKO in a bid for the undisputed welterweight championship.
The 36-year-old’s bout with Tszyu was originally set to be contested at 158 pounds, but was moved to the 160-pound limit on fight week.
Tszyu has home advantage and has won two on the bounce since a seventh round retirement loss to Sebastian Fundora in their rematch last July.
The 31-year-old former world champion has lost three times in his career, twice to Fundora and once to Bakhmram Murtazaliev.
