Zuffa Boxing expands September card with Richards and Cutler bouts

Zuffa Boxing has confirmed two additional bouts for its upcoming heavyweight card at London’s Copper Box Arena, scheduled for Saturday, September 26. The additions see former world title challenger Craig Richards face Radivoje Kalajdzic, while Lee Cutler takes on Louis Greene in a middleweight clash.

The event, branded as Zuffa Boxing 11, will be headlined by Johnny Fisher’s latest heavyweight contest. Fisher, known as 'The Romford Bull', is set to fight over 10 rounds, though his opponent remains to be announced in the coming days. Richards vs Kalajdzic is positioned as the chief support bout for the main event.

Richards, a British former world title challenger who contested the WBA light-heavyweight title against Dmitry Bivol in 2021, enters the ring with a record of 20-4-1. He has won his two most recent fights in 2025, including a knockout victory over Dan Azeez in December. His opponent, Kalajdzic, is a 35-year-old Serbian-born fighter with a record of 30-3 and 22 knockouts. This bout marks the first time Kalajdzic has competed outside North America as a professional, following a seventh-round knockout of Oleksandr Gvozdyk in February.

In the middleweight division, the card features a 10-round showdown between Cutler and Greene. Cutler defeated Stevie McKenna on points in December 2024 and stopped Aaron Sutton in three rounds in his most recent bout. Greene, a former Commonwealth super-welterweight champion, secured a points decision victory over Daniel Buciuc in Dublin last week.

The September bill also marks a significant shift in the promoter’s roster with the inclusion of Kayla Allen. A decorated British amateur, Allen makes her professional debut, becoming the first female fighter to sign with Zuffa Boxing. Other fighters on the London card include Alex MacMillan, Leon Hughes, and Fred Pullen, who is also turning professional. The entire event will be broadcast live on Sky Sports.
