Joey Essex vs Dapper Laughs - 9.20pm

Joey Essex plans to deliver a more sensible performance tonight after his machine-gun approach on his debut last year. On that occasion, the reality TV star went gung-ho against Numeiro with both men throwing punches to the point of exhaustion. Essex takes on Dapper Laughs tonight after the comedian answered a late-notice call to also enter the ring for the second time.

Swarmz vs Ambush - 8.50pm

Swarmz and Ambush will settle their beef tonight having clashed in the ring in Newcastle last month. Chaos ensued as they attempted to fight there and then but ultimately they agreed to do it properly. Ambush will be making his debut while Swarmz has won two of his six fights to date.

Big Stacks vs James Collins - 8.20pm

Big Stacks - who calls himself the UK's Hardest Man - just can't stay away from the ring as he fights for the third time this year. Stacks lost a body-shot challenge to Armz Korleone in June before notching his first victory last month when he stopped Jordan McCann in the second round. He was due to face Apprentice star Thomas Skinner tonight but the bed salesman pulled out. In stepped West Ham legend James Collins who makes his ring debut.

Jordan McCann vs Mo Deen - 7.50pm

Jordan McCann announced his retirement following his stoppage defeat by Big Stacks last month, but quickly reversed his decision and will return in a five-round clash against Mo Deen. The catch is, each round is only one-minute long. Both men have lost their first two fights and will be desperate to get off the mark tonight.

Lil CraCra vs Andrew Howson vs Joey Knight vs Felony Charles - 7.30pm

A hastily-arranged Survivor Tag fight will see four lightweights take to the ring in a bid to see who can survive the longest. Lil CraCra and Joey Knight will surely be the favourites to prevail.

Plinio Cruz vs Gary Olive - 7.10pm

Plinio Cruz, who trains UFC heavyweight star Alex Pereira, was due to take on Chase DeMoor but the Misfits heavyweight champion was ruled out with an eye injury. Instead, DeMoor's coach Gary Olive will step in in an attempt to defend his pupil's honour.

Nitboy & Kane West vs Little T & Cracky Tokky - 6.50pm

Nitboy and Kane West have gone from enemies to teammates as they take on Little T and Cracky Tocky in a tag-team fight. Nitboy shocked Kane West last month with a stunning victory in their slugfest while Little T returns for the first time since his grudge match with Afghan Dan.

Carla Jade vs Erika Night - 6.30pm

The night kicks of with Carla Jade defending her lightweight title against former amateur boxer Erika Night. The Icelandic challenger is now more known for her social media influencing but will be hoping her pedigree will shine through tonight.

Dazn bringing us only the best of British boxing

James Collins used to play for us, he’s a big ginger lump from Newport so imagine he’s been in his fair share of brawls

he was at Villa too for a few seasons..

Probably more known for his years at West Ham

Apparently there’s a video of Collins on the pads and he wasn’t looking too clever.

What on earth is this “survivor tag” match all about. The standard tag team match is going to be bizarre enough.

No boxing on tonight then.

Dropping Mcann down to 1 minute rounds is pretty farcical, even by Misfits standards. At least give him an incentive to get to the gym.

This tag team match is bonkers.

You guys watching this?

It is what it is Ruth

“Battle of the trainers” on now.

I only just found out that this is a thing.

What has boxing become?

Ps. Who the fornicate is Dapper Laughs?

He's pretty well known to be honest.

I can’t help you much on who Dapper Laughs is, aside from having 1 win on his record like Joey Essex.

I was mildly surprised to see Essex come back for another go, after the torrid experience he endured last time.

At least these guys aren’t name dropping active pros, it’s a pretty much in-house affair. It is what is is, and I don’t mind it for a bit of entertainment.

Not sure how to change my username, makes no sense why im a bunch of numbers

But then does Misfits make sense?

Dapper Laughs is on TikTok I know that, and does the odd standup show

God this Mo Dean character is bottom of the barrel.

McCann has Tye Mitchell in his corner, trains with Tyson Fury and usually walks out with Dennis McCann!

LOL I’m talking about who they are actually calling out for a fight.

I didn't know Joey Essex had "fought" before.

Collins looking a lot better than I expected. Being a career sportsman should stand him in good stead from here.

Big Stacks breathing out of his arse after the first round of course.

This Stacks fella is really poor.
I'm nearly 60 and fitter than him, terrible cardio and he doesn't disguise it.

I've just watched Celebrity Catchphrase.

Joey Essex was surprisingly good.

Yeah it’s a struggle for him just to shift that frame around, never mind what the opponent is doing.
