Former WBO cruiserweight champion Chris Billam-Smith gets a long-awaited shot at revenge in London on Saturday. He takes on Cheavon Clarke, the man who beat him in the final of the national championships to set up a place on the British Olympic team 10 years ago.
While Billam-Smith is now the more successful name, he has been outspoken on the impact the amateur loss had on his life, forcing a tougher route through the professional ranks.
Both men have an opportunity to take an important stride forwards at the Copper Box Arena, which hosts an intriguing Zuffa Boxing 12 card on bitterly cold night in the UK.

First up tonight: two Zuffa debuts for cruiserweights who have put excellent runs together.
Englishman Lucas Roehrig is unbeaten at 7-0, but faces fierce competition from Scotland's Connal McDonald, who has lost just once in his last six fights. It's an eight-rounder. It's a chance at propulsion for the winner.
A little prelim action for you: Umar Dzambekov defeated Zach Parker with a fourth-round body shot that can almost be felt through the screen.
The undefeated light heavyweight prospect is making a name for himself with highlight reel finishes - even after a tough few opening rounds.
Strap yourselves in - we've got a big night ahead. And it starts at the top of the hour!
