Joshua Buatsi will make his Stateside debut in the autumn.

The undefeated Olympic bronze medallist moved to six dights undefeated in London last weekend.

Buatsi stopped game Frenchman Stephane Cuevas inside five rounds at the O2 Arena, exclusively live on Sky Sports Box Office, as part of the supporting cast to Tony Bellew's repeat victory over David Haye.

And he will get some global exposure on September 22 in New York, at a venue to be confirmed, as part of the new Matchroom Boxing USA TV deal that will be announced on Thursday at 4pm ET.

Before that, though, Boxing Scene understands that Buatsi will feature back at the O2 Arena again.

The 25-year-old light-heavyweight (6-0, 4 KOs) will box at the Greenwich venue, on a date to be confirmed in July –– either July 21 or July 28 –– exclusively live on Sky Sports, on the same card as Dillian Whyte's next outing.

Whyte could face Kubrat Pulev in a final eliminator for the IBF heavyweight world title which is currently held by Anthony Joshua, with Luis Ortiz also a potential opponent option in a WBC final eliminator.

Further details will be revealed in due course.
