Enfield's star boxer Frank Buglioni has signed a promotional deal with Matchroom Boxing.

He will defend his British Light-Heavyweight title against Ricky Summers at The 02 in London on Saturday, March 4.

Buglioni saw off Hoses Burton to win the crown in an epic clash in Manchester last December when he stopped the local favourite in the last round.

The 'Wise Guy' aims are clear, to claim the Lord Lonsdale belt, as he prepares for his first fight with new promoter Eddie Hearn.

Speaking to matchroomboxing.com the 27-year-old said: "I wanted to get the British title and prove to myself and the fans that I was championship material and could put on a performance," said Buglioni.

"I was very impressed with the whole set up for the Burton fight with Sky Sports, the build-up was great and as soon as the offer came from Eddie I jumped at is as Matchroom and Sky Sports are putting on great shows all year round, this is the platform to be on.

"I've worked hard to get the British title and I want to win it outright, I don't think that it's been done for over 25 years in my division, so I really want to achieve it.

"I'm looking to get this one out of the way and look for two more defences to make that happen.

"There’s no such thing as an easy British title defence as anyone that fights for the title is going to give it everything they’ve got. It’s one of the best belts out there and it means so much to win it – Hosea and I proved back in December just how much fighters give in order to land it.

"The immediate aim is to get the LL belt for keeps but of course, if European or World title shots present themselves, that’s something the team will consider and look at the options.

"I’m thrilled to be on the card, the main event is one that I’m really looking forward to.

"I rate Tony Bellew a lot, he’s improved massively throughout his career, he was told he wasn’t British, European or World level and he’s proved all the doubters wrong. David’s got the experience and he’s a massive puncher, so it’s going to be explosive."

Burton and Summers meet on a huge night at The 02 as David Haye and Tony Bellew meet in a blockbusting Heavyweight grudge match.
