WBU middleweight champion Gary Lockett will make the second defence of his title against Lee Blundell.
The 30-year-old Cwmbran man has been seeking a challenger for the 7 April bout at Cardiff's Millennium Stadium since Darren McDermott's withdrawal.
Southpaw Blundell, 35, is from Wigan and holds a record of 23-4 (13 KOs).
He has won his last six, and in 2002 scored a knockout win over Ryan Rhodes, whom Lockett beat on points in his first defence last July.
The bout will be on the undercard of Joe Calzaghe's WBO super middleweight defence against Peter Manfredo Jr.
Lockett, whose record stands at 28-1 (19 KOs), will be in his first contest since taking Joe's father Enzo Calzaghe as his trainer.
