In anticipation of their Saturday night bout for the Welsh Super Featherweight title at Newport Centre in Newport, Wales, rivals Dai Davies and Jamie Arthur will come face to face today for the official weigh-in to the Jamie Sanigar promoted fight card.
Reigning champion Davies, 5-9-1 (0), has faced some of the best at feather and super feather such as Jason Booth, Rendall Munroe, Derry Matthews, Akaash Bhatia and Matthew Marsh, resulting in a humble won-lost record but also great ring experience.
Arthur, 10-2 (3), of Cwmbran, will be taking part in his second bout since returning from a two and a half year layoff and the 28 year old will be looking to reclaim past amateur glories that saw him claim a Gold Medal at the 2002 Commonwealth Games.
The undercard sees former Commonwealth title challenger Matthew Edmonds face Ghana's Prosper Ankrah at super bantam and super feather Robbie Turley squares off with Sid Razak, both bouts scheduled for six rounds.
Also on the bill, light heavyweights Pawel Trebinski and Justyn Hugh as well as featherweight Lee Selby are set to see action.
