Anthony Ogogo (8-0, 4 KOs) will make his long-awaited return to the ring on May 28 at the SSE Hydro in Glasgow, live on Sky Sports. Unbeaten Ogogo's professional career has been stop-start so far due to injury, with the 2012 Olympic bronze medallist set for his first action since July where he moved to 8-0 with a win in Germany over Ruslan Schelev.

But the 27 year old insists his injury woes are behind him and he's ready to get his career back on track and make a huge impact in the middleweight division.
