Kostya Tszyu will defend his world light-welterweight title against British challenger Ricky Hatton in Manchester on June 4.
Tszyu is widely regarded as one of the world's best pound-for-pound fighters but the International Boxing Federation (IBF) champion can expect to be confronted by a capacity crowd cheering for local hero 'Hitman' Hatton.
The likelihood is the fight will be held in the early hours of the morning to cater for television audiences in Australia and the United States.
