Former lightweight world champion George Kambosos (21-3) makes his debut in the super lightweight division against a late-notice domestic opponent in Jake Wyllie (16-1).
The hard-hitting Queenslander with 15 knockouts on his record stepped up after Daud Yordan pulled out, hoping to spring an upset and make a name for himself on the international stage.
For Kambosos, a shot at IBF champion at 140-pounds, Richardson Hitchins, awaits if he can emerge victorious.
