Johnny Fisher’s opponent finally confirmed for Zuffa Boxing London debut

Johnny Fisher now knows who he will be taking on when he makes his Zuffa Boxing debut next month.

Fisher has competed under the Matchroom Boxing banner in his professional career to date, notably having two fights with Dave Allen in the past 18 months, narrowly winning the first by split decision before suffering a knockout defeat in their rematch in June 2025.

He returned to winning ways with a stoppage win against Ivan Balaz, but after 15 fights with Eddie Hearn’s promotional company, he has now made the switch to Dana White’s Zuffa, where he will headline an event at the Copper Box Arena in London on September 26.

With just over a month to go until his return to the ring, it has now been announced that Fisher is set to fight Belgium boxer Michael Pirotton, who holds a record of 12 wins and 2 defeats, with 6 of those wins coming by stoppage.

“I can’t wait to be back at the Copper Bosh on September 26 and bring another huge night of boxing to London. Bull Army, get ready, because it’s going to be a fantastic show. Pirotton is an experienced, powerful heavyweight who can’t be taken lightly.”

The co-main event for the card sees Craig Richards take on Radivoje Kalajdzic in a light heavyweight battle, while Lee Culter and Louis Greene meet in a middleweight affair.

Rounding up the bill, unbeaten pair Leon Hughes and Alex MacMillan will each be in action, while Fred Pullen and Kayla Allen are also scheduled to make their respective professional debuts.
