    download (2)James Degale will be taking on Marco Antonio Periban according to today’s report of The Sun. The fight will take place on the undercard of the Nathan Cleverly-Tony Bellew pay-per-view rematch on November 22nd in Liverpool’s Echo Arena.

    Degale has long been rumored to be a potential Carl Froch next year but multiple outlets have reported that Froch and Eddie Hearn might be eyeing a trilogy with Mikkel Kessler.

    Periban hasn’t been in the win column since March of last year suffering losses to Sakio Bika, J’leon Love, and drawing with Badou Jack.

    Degale has been on a 9 fight winning streak since losing to his rival George Groves. Groves got two cracks at Carl Froch failing twice. On the rematch undercard, Degale stopped American Brandon Gonzales and was hoping that performance would land him Froch or a bigger fight in the future.
