Makabu has been linked with a fight against Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez at some point in 2022, but that can only happen he gets past Mchunu. A loss to the South African would almost certainly take Makabu out of the running for a 'big money' fight with the world's best pound-for-pound fighter.

Can Mchunu produce the performance of his career and ruin Makabu's plans, or will the reigning champion take another step towards a potential showdown with Canelo?

WBC world cruiserweight champion Illunga Makabu returns to action tonight when he defends his belt against mandatory challenger Thabiso Mchunu.

Coming into this fight on the back of a seventh-round stoppage against Olanrewaju Durodola last month, Makabu will be hoping to produce a similar performance in Warren, Ohio.

If the Congolese fighter is able to get the victory, he may be set for a big money clash with Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez later this year — the Mexican is rumoured to be considering a move up to cruiserweight.

This isn't the only world title fight on the bill, however. Trevor Bryan is also in action, defending his WBA 'regular' heavyweight title against the undefeated Jonathan Guidry.
