Paul vs Joshua: Anthony Joshua already on weight for Jake Paul fight as undercard confirmed

American Olympian Jahmal Harvey’s featherweight bout against Kevin Cervantes will kick off the main card for the Paul-Anthony fight night.

The six-round contest is expected to be the final bout added to the main card, which will consist of four fights.

Harvey, 23, will be facing his second professional bout when he takes on his fellow unbeaten prospect Cervantes.

Alycia Baumgardner’s super-featherweight world title defences against Leila Beaudoin is the co-main event.

The American is defending her WBO, WBA and IBF titles after vacating her WBC belt earlier this year in protest over the sanctioning bodies’ refusal to offer 12 three-minute rounds for women’s bouts.

A boxing match between former UFC rivals Anderson Silva and Tyron Woodley is also on the main card.

Chris Weidman was scheduled to box Silva in a six-round cruiserweight bout before an injury forced him to withdraw and prompted Woodley to step in.

There are two world title fights on the preliminary card, with Cherneka Johnson defending her undisputed bantamweight title against Amanda Galle, while Yokasta Valle and Yadira Bustillos contest the WBC strawweight belt.

An additional fight on the preliminary card could still be announced.
