Louie Lynn will be back in the ring in the summer.
The undefeated 23-year-old has been out since last October.
Lynn, who is trained by former world title challenger Kevin Mitchell, is campaigning at featherweight and is from Banstead in Surrey.
He made his professional debut against Michael Horabin at the O2 Arena in March 2018, stopping him inside two rounds, and added three more quick finishes before his hiatus.
But now ‘Loco’ – a former GB amateur champion who also won the ABAs – has inked a three-year deal with Frank Warren.
And not long after revealing the news, the fighter has a date for his return.
Lynn will come back on July 13, exclusively live on BT Sport in the UK, as part of the supporting cast to his new promoter’s ‘Heavy Duty’ card.
The bill, at the O2 Arena in London, will be topped by the eagerly anticipated showdown between Daniel Dubois and Nathan Gorman.
The heavyweight duo will meet in a clash for the vacant British title, with Joe Joyce also set to feature on the bill.
Joyce recently inked a co-promotional deal with Warren and is understood to be in negotiations for a potential fight with European champion Agit Kabayel – one for which he is mandatory – before a crack at the winner of the Dubois vs. Gorman fight.
Boxing Scene understands Sunny Edwards will return on the bill after being nominated by the British Boxing Board of Control to face Commonwealth champion Tommy Frank for the vacant Lonsdale belt at super-flyweight and British super-featherweight champion Sam Bowen is likely to make a mandatory defence against Anthony Cacace.
Further additions to the card will be revealed in due course.
