Ben Whittaker and Conor Wallace are scheduled to headline Matchroom's card at Utilita Arena Birmingham on Saturday, October 3. Matchroom describes their light-heavyweight meeting as a final eliminator for the IBF world title. Whittaker's WBC Silver belt is also on the line. The contest matters for the next stage of the title race, but it is not itself a world-title fight.
Matchroom's event page lists the live fight night from 4:30 p.m. UK time. That is the start of the event, not a confirmed ring-walk time for Whittaker and Wallace. The promoter says the show will be carried worldwide by DAZN; viewers should check the DAZN listing in their own region for access and any subscription requirements. The venue is Utilita Arena Birmingham.
The supporting card gives the evening several other stakes. Hamza Uddin is listed against Sean Bruce for the British and Commonwealth flyweight titles, while Bilal Fawaz defends the British and Commonwealth super-welterweight titles against Eithan James. Ibraheem Sulaimaan meets Sonny Hardy for the English super-featherweight title. Matchroom also lists Odel Kamara's professional debut against Thodoris Ritzakis. As with any fight card, these pairings can change close to the event.
For fans following the build-up, Matchroom has scheduled a media press conference for Thursday, October 1 at 2 p.m. UK time and a public weigh-in at The Grand Hotel in Birmingham on Friday, October 2 at 6 p.m. UK time. Its event page also lists a preview show at 7 p.m. Friday. The official event page is the best place to recheck timing before travelling or tuning in.
