Chris Eubank Junior will make his ring return when he challenges IBO World super middleweight champion Renold Quinlan early in 2017 live on ITV's new pay per view channel.

Brighton fighter Eubank Jr has not fought since defending his British middleweight title against Thomas Doran in June.

He has since relinquished the belt but steps up for world honours against the 27-year-old Australian, who has a 11-1 record from 12 fights.

The promoter is Poxon Sports in association with Chris Eubank senior's Unity Motion.

Eubank senior enthralled television audiences on ITV two decades ago and his son is now following in his footsteps.

Eubank Jr, 27, the former interim WBA world middleweight champion, said: “I feel blessed to have this opportunity to work with ITV after they first showcased my father 26 years ago."
