Chris Billam-Smith defeats Ryan Rozicki by technical knockout in the 7th round at Zuffa Boxing's UK debut in Bournemouth, with both fighters hospitalized post-fight.

Zuffa Boxing's inaugural UK event, featuring Chris Billam-Smith vs. Ryan Rozicki, will proceed despite Boxxer's legal claims over contractual rights to fighters on the undercard.

Former world cruiserweight champion Chris Billam-Smith will headline Zuffa Boxing's first UK show, facing Canadian Ryan Rozicki at Bournemouth International Centre on 6 June. The 35-year-old from Dorset, who signed a multi-fight deal with Dana White's Zuffa earlier this month, returns after more than a year since his victory over American Brandon Glanton at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Rozicki carries a 21-0-1 record with 20 knockouts and this marks his first fight outside Canada.
