Rhiannon Dixon and Terri Harper hit the scales ahead of Sheffield bout for WBO title

Rhiannon Dixon and Terri Harper both made weight ahead of their bout for the WBO lightweight title in Sheffield.

They meet at the Park Community Arena over 10 rounds on a bill that sees Peter McGrail take on Brad Foster while prodigious Olympic gold medalist Galal Yafai aims to get rounds ahead of his significant November 30 fight with Sunny Edwards.

Matchroom promoter Eddie Hearn said the main event represented Dixon’s first acid test and added that it could be Harper’s final roll of the dice.

Dixon makes the first defense of the title (then vacant) she defeated Karen Elizabeth Carbajal for in April.
