Championship boxing will be heading to Bluewater Shopping Centre’s Glow venue next month.

Olympic champion James De Gale fights to defend his EBU (European) super middleweight title on October 13.

Also in action will be Chris Eubank Junior, the son of former two-weight world champion Chris Eubank.

Lenny Daws, from London, will be fighting Ville Piispanen for the vacant EBU-EU (European Union) light welterweight title.

And the evening, which will live on Channel 5, will also feature Kent fighter Adam Dingsdale.

The Hoo boxer, pictured, has won all four of his lightweight bouts and fights in his home county for the first time. Dingsdale said: "It’s an amazing opportunity."

Tickets are priced from £30 and can be purchased from ticketline.co.uk and hennessysports.com or by calling the Sports Box Office on 01925 75522 / 0844 888 4402. Doors open at 5pm, with boxing starting from 5.30pm and live fighting on Channel 5 from 10pm.
